Thanks Charles!
This is a good question actually... maybe I should rtfm, but can you receive
mail on port 25 and transport it on another port?
This could be useful in pushing through a firewall, in addition to the
redirection. My next to next task.
Thanks!

If you're using tcpserver to run qmail-smtpd, specify a different port
number
for the port argument for tcpserver. Similar changes apply if you're
running qmail-smtpd out of inetd or xinetd. `man tcpserver` for details
on tcpserver's arguments.
You're aware, of course, that normal clients won't try any port besides 25
when trying to send mail to you.
