Ok I just noticed I can even comment out the regular smtp protocol from master.cf to remove listening from port 25. I get alot of hits to our server, we are an open domain but looking to close soon. We dont intendto make anyone's life difficult but we have complaints from clients that cannot send outbound. It is because their ISP blocks outgoing 25 and 465. So we use a custom port. They may know about 587 as well.
