If you only want secure SMTP access, don't allow connections to port 25
(althought this could cause problems if this server is also used to receive
incoming mail). The tcp port 465 is reserved for SMTP over SSL. Only
allow connection to port 25 from localhost and set up your ssl wrapper to
proxy those connections from port 465.
