The UDP ports 161 and 162 are not used for SMTP,
they are used for SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol).

You can use NMAP to check the ports.
There is a Windows and a Linux version available at:

Unless you have SNMP server or agent installed on your PC, these ports (udp-161, udp-162) are not listening on your PC. As for SMTP, the port is tcp-25 and it's used by email server.
