If you do not like a lack of TLS enforcement on the submission port

really trying to find a way to do traffic isolation. If I know no
client connections are made on 25, from a troubleshooting perspective
alone, it seems to make things simpler on me.
Every connection made to port 25 is from a client. Some are internal
clients
(usually users) and some are external clients (usually other
mailservers but
acting as a client from the view of your mailserver). But they are all
clients. If you think of users as clients and external mailservers as
something else, you'll have trouble configuring things correctly.
Right, but that is a tad pedantic given the context of my other
emails :) The context it that case would have been a person, as in a
client of mine, or an email client. For clarity, in my referenced
post above, when I said "client", I meant a desktop email client, such
as Outlook, Mail, Entourage, Thunderbird etc.
