I have been using postfix for about two + years but something that was
just out of my understanding at the time was setting up relaying.
Right now I just sent from my mail client (thunderbird) but I would
like to be able to send back through postfix to keep a record of all
sent mails.
Im getting this error:
postfix/smtp[18963]:

relay=72.167.82.80[72.167.82.80]:465,

delays=7522/0.06/300/0,
dsn=4.4.2,
status=deferred (lost connection with 72.167.82.80[72.167.82.80] while
receiving the initial server greeting)
sm...@smart-laptop:~$ postconf -n
...
relayhost = 72.167.82.80:465
(side note, the IP should be enclosed in brackets,
relayhost = [72.167.82.80]:port
but that's probably unrelated to this problem.)
Using port 465 implies that the client is expecting wrapper-mode TLS.
This mode is deprecated for email use and not directly supported by
postfix.
The vast majority of mail relays also support using the standard
"submission" interface at port 587, which is the strongly preferred port.
If it's an antique mail relay that doesn't support the submission port,
a workaround for client side wrapper mode is described here:

I contacted the company and, you were right, so I changed the port and I
added the brackets. Similar error message:
relay=non delay=35 delays=4.6/0.08/30/0 dns=4.41 status=deferred
(connect to 72.167.82.80[72.167.82.80]:587: Connection timed out)
Ok, Im just going to ask this because.. I dont know.
You "can" connect to a normal smtp port with postfix, right?
I mean, I get my email from Godaddy and Im using or wanted postfix to
send my mail back through my account.
