You need to set this to "yes" if you plan to have accounts sending mail out
through your mail server. Because that's potentially a security risk,
Postfix doesn't set this to "yes" by default.

As to smtpd_tls_security_level, you are right that (for port 25 smtp) it is
better as "may", but the reason the default is none is that you will need
to set up TLS certificate first, which isn't in the scope of what Postfix
does. So that's why it sets none as the default.
