Im surprised at the responses here.. can't a woman have friends (of the opposite sex) in a relationship, or are the only ones allowed ones she knew before you and thus pose no threat?
Granted, I'm in a relationship, and I'd react very much the same as you did, but really, who am I to say, 'no, you can no longer have female friends to talk to occasionally/frequently/once.'
Be grateful your wife told you (already a good sign it's not a sneaky meetup, and loyalty), and just explain you were/are worried about it escalating.
We're all protective of our partners, let her know you're seeing some little red flags.
The fact that she told him is worse. Now when the "friends" number shows up on the phone bill she has a built in excuse. If she didn't tell him then it looks suspicious when he sees the number. This isn't a matter of just having a male friend. This is a woman who met a NEW friend. It is completely inappropriate to exchange numbers unless the married couple agree ahead of time. The reason why everyone responds the same way is because we all (including you) know where these things end. I'd love to hear the ending to the story a year or so from now.
Is it normal that my wife spoke with a stranger at a coffee shop?
