Since my ISP blocks port 25 I'd like to be able to configure postfix to send smtp email over port 587. Every time I try to send an email I see this in the mail.log

Oct 17 10:37:49 new-host-2 postfix/smtp[1552]: connect to aspmx.l.google.com[74.125.113.27]:25: Operation timed out

I'm assuming this is due to the fact that this doesn't work over port 25. What do I need to modify in order to get smtp to communicate over port 587? I tried using port forwarding but that wasn't working either.

Not sure but I think if I can get the mail.log to show [74.125.113.27]:587 this would work. Any idea how to switch this?

Thanks in advance!
