with clear text passwords (PLAIN and LOGIN), it is recommended to force
clients to use SSL/TLS. somewhere in "advanced configuration", specify
the (smtp) port as 587 and encryption type as "TLS". for this, you need
to enable and configure the "submission" service in master.cf.

- you can also use port 25, but 587 is recommended for mail submission.
(and has the advantage of not being blocked except may be by dumb ISPs)

- you can also use port 465 and enc type "SSL", after enabling and
configuring the "smtps" service. but STARTLS is the standard way.

For more details, read the fine docs:
