Give me a configuration for such a thing.
I think several people mentioned by now reading the doc and getting
familiar with email. This is not trying to be mean, I think you really
would set it up faster by learning and using it, then also understanding
it b/c you have to maintain it, than asking over and over for some
config lines on here.

Let the mail providers have their setups. Is it possible to have a
configuration where I have 2 servers, example.com example2.com where I can send
and receive emails on ports say, 777 on plaintext, starttls optional and port
778 with smtps?
Give me a configuration for such a thing.
humaaraartha.in. TXT "v=spf1 ipv4:{myipv4address} -all"
humaaraartha.in. TXT "resports:777,778"humaaraartha.in. humaaraartha.in. MX 10 humaaraartha.in.
humaaraartha.in. A {myipv4address}
That is all you have, nothing more for both servers. Can you help me send and recieve mails on ports 777,778 with just above DNS and smtpd? I can add SRV records for detection of ports 777, 778 if you want.
Thanking you

No. Are you saying that only people who control the network should send mails? Well DNS exactly is
for that. If you find I send spams, you can easily easily block mails from my domain
humaaraartha.in but it is not wise nor ethical to by default not allow people to mail.
That issue lies because hardware is not mapped to people. There is no technological solution for
trust hopping between machines. ssh should be discouraged and each machine, denoted by single IP
address should be mapped to a human. So humaaraartha.in is run by Sagar Acharya.
My configuration of whitelisting does exactly that. In today's world where each grain can
potentially have an IPv6, I accept requests only from whitelist or at the very least accept from
everyone and prioritize the whitelist.
Well, what action should be implemented for sending emails. I don't get a sending action. I have
changed conf to
action "send" relay helo humaaraartha.inmatch from any for any action "send"

As many people told you, domestic connections are no longer suitable for sending mail, wether you
like it or not this is the actual state of the SMTP network and will remain like this because the
big mailer corps control most of the e-mail address space and have decided so. If you ignore this
then you'll be blocked from most recipients, you decide if it's acceptable for you.
Then, if you're domestic connection has outgoing port 25 filtered, you can't work around this and
need a relay host somewhere else that can accept mail on a different port with unfiltered port 25
for outgoing trafic. You can't just switch to a different port and expect it to work this shows a
misunderstanding of how networking, internet and SMTP works.
There's nothing that can be changed in your config that will fix this because the problem isn't a
configuration issue but an issue with understanding both what you're allowed and trying to do.
