I think you're getting this error because spaces are not allowed in
master.cf config options, so, you could continue to support port 465 if
you changed:

-o smtpd_tls_auth_only = yes

to

-o smtpd_tls_auth_only=yes

But yes, use of 465/SMTPS is deprecated in favor of submission port
(587+TLS), and only needed if you need/want to support older clients
that do not support TLS (old versions of Outlook, Outlook Express, and
maybe some older mobile/phone clients)...
