I second that. Port 25 is without encryption, so i don't offer auth there - only on 587. Apart from that, stolen passwords were tried for login via port 587. This is reduced quite a bit by smtpd_sender_restrictions = [...} reject_unknown_sender_domain, reject_unknown_reverse_client_hostname, reject_unknown_client_hostname which refuses connections from addresses without DNS setup. This blocks people who run their own smtp server, but don't bother to setup a dyndns hostname at least. I can do without them. Most of the live in asia where i hardly know anybody...
