I recommend running on ports higher than 1024 - you don't want to run any application as root if you don't have to. To get email from port 25 to your port I suggest either a firewall rule or rinetd (http://www.boutell.com/rinetd/). You will need root access for either the firewall change or to run rinetd, but that is inherent to UNIX. The only disadvantage to using rinetd is that you loose the information about who is connecting to your server - everything appears to come from the machine on which rinetd is running on.
