postfix
I've done quite a bit of googling on how to reconfigure postfix to work on a different port, but I still can't fond the line(s) people keep talking about in my master.cf. I'm using OS X Mountain Lion, and my ISP blocks traffic both ways on port 25.
people have said to look for a line that says
smtp inet n - n - - smtpd
I can't find it.
This is (what I believe to be) unmodified
# ==== Begin auto-generated section ========================================
# This section of the master.cf file is auto-generated by the Server Admin
# Mail backend plugin whenever mails settings are modified.
smtp inet n - n - 1 postscreen
smtpd pass - - n - - smtpd
dnsblog unix - - n - 0 dnsblog
tlsproxy unix - - n - 0 tlsproxy
submission inet n - n - - smtpd
-o smtpd_tls_security_level=encrypt
smtp unix - - n - - smtp
# === End auto-generated section ===========================================
# Modern SMTP clients communicate securely over port 25 using the STARTTLS command.
# Some older clients, such as Outlook 2000 and its predecessors, do not properly
# support this command and instead assume a preconfigured secure connection
# on port 465. This was sometimes called "smtps", but such usage was never
# approved by the IANA and therefore conflicts with another, legitimate assignment.
# For more details about managing secure SMTP connections with postfix, please see:
# http://www.postfix.org/TLS_README.html
# To read more about configuring secure connections with Outlook 2000, please read:

# Apple does not support the use of port 465 for this purpose.
# After determining that connecting clients do require this behavior, you may choose
# to manually enable support for these older clients by uncommenting the following
# four lines.
#465 inet n - n - - smtpd
# -o smtpd_tls_wrappermode=yes
# -o smtpd_sasl_auth_enable=yes
# -o smtpd_client_restrictions=permit_sasl_authenticated,reject
