Thanks Andy, it worked. Just tested on my server :)

I just realized that the plain text line-wrapped the script, so here
is an unwrapped version in case anyone else wants to use it. Also, I
made it multiline so you can cut and paste it into a terminal and
accomplish this in about 3 seconds with netstat confirming success (it
should print a single line showing tcpserver listening on 465).
rfc8314 <https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8314> in Jan of this year
reinstates port 465/tls because starttls (port 587) is broken beyond
repair (from a security perspective). So eventually everyone may
eventually need to go back to port 465. But since servers get to
dictate setting to their clients without creating interoperability
issues, it will likely be many years before this occurs.
The critical flaw in starttls is that some ISP's and/or governments
have been caught filtering out the STARTTLS packet and thus preventing
the initiation of encryption (a "starttls downgrade attack"). In that
case, the client's username and password are sent in the clear. And
if an eavesdropper gets those, they can wreak havoc on your your life
(i.e. by resetting the password for your bank or other online
accounts, etc). With port 465/tls, the client connection either
establishes encryption or fails; it cannot be tricked into using
clear-text.
Anyway, here is the paste-able script:
qmailctl stop; \
cp -r /var/qmail/supervise/submission /var/qmail/supervise/smtps; \
chown -R qmaill:qmail /var/qmail/supervise/smtps; \
sed -i 's/REQUIRE_AUTH=1/REQUIRE_AUTH=1\nexport SMTPS=1/'
/var/qmail/supervise/smtps/run; \
sed -i 's/587/465/' /var/qmail/supervise/smtps/run; \
sed -i 's/submission/smtps/' /var/qmail/supervise/smtps/log/run; \
sed -i 's/DH:!LOW:!MEDIUM/ECDHE:DHE:ECDH:DH:AES:!SSLv2:!SSLv3/'
/etc/tcprules.d/tcp.smtp; \
qmailctl cdb; \
qmailctl start; \
netstat -lnp | grep 465
-Andy
PS: If old clients cannot connect, then remove the "!SSLv3" from the
cipher list in tcp.smtp

Cool! I remember I did it like Eric described but the bottom line is
it works either way. I do not offer 465 any longer :)

I eventually figured this out, and accomplished the same result though I
went about it slightly differently. It is now fully functional. Below
is the script which I created and accomplishes this in very few lines.
It copies the supervise/smtp directory to supervise/smtps and it then
edits a few values in two files files (plus editing the cipher list in
tcp.smtp).
qmailctl stop
cp -r /var/qmail/supervise/submission /var/qmail/supervise/smtps
chown -R qmaill:qmail /var/qmail/supervise/smtps
sed -i 's/REQUIRE_AUTH=1/REQUIRE_AUTH=1\nexport SMTPS=1/'
/var/qmail/supervise/smtps/run
sed -i 's/587/465/' /var/qmail/supervise/smtps/run
sed -i 's/submission/smtps/' /var/qmail/supervise/smtps/log/run
sed -i 's/DH:!LOW:!MEDIUM/ECDHE:DHE:ECDH:DH:AES:!SSLv2/'
/etc/tcprules.d/tcp.smtp
qmailctl cdb
qmailctl start
Thanks for confirming that I did it right,
Andy

Stock CentOS 7 does not have SMTPS standard. You must create the
supervise scripts.
You could stop qmail
# qmailctl stop
and copy smtp supervise scripts to smtps (make sure qmail is stopped or
else you'll have a mess):
# cp -Rp /var/qmail/supervise/smtp /var/qmail/supervise/smtps
Then change two files:
/var/qmail/supervise/smtps/run
<run>
#!/bin/sh
QMAILDUID=`id -u vpopmail`
NOFILESGID=`id -g vpopmail`
MAXSMTPD=`cat /var/qmail/control/concurrencyincoming`
SMTPD="/var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd"
TCP_CDB="/etc/tcprules.d/tcp.smtp.cdb"
HOSTNAME=`hostname`
VCHKPW="/home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw"
export SMTPS=1
exec /usr/bin/softlimit -m 128000000 \
/usr/bin/tcpserver -v -R -H -l $HOSTNAME -x $TCP_CDB -c
"$MAXSMTPD" \
-u "$QMAILDUID" -g "$NOFILESGID" 0 465 \
$SMTPD $VCHKPW /bin/true 2>&1
</run>
&
/var/qmail/supervise/smtps/log/run
<run>
#!/bin/sh
LOGSIZE=`cat /var/qmail/control/logsize`
LOGCOUNT=`cat /var/qmail/control/logcount`
exec /usr/bin/setuidgid qmaill /usr/bin/multilog \
t s$LOGSIZE n$LOGCOUNT /var/log/qmail/smtps 2>&1
</run>
Start qmail (# qmailctl start)

I just installed qmailtoaster onto CentOS-7. The qt_install script
opened port 465 on the firewall. However, s_client cannot connect to
port 465 and netstat shows that nothing is listening on port 465.
Can anyone point me at appropriate instructions for setting up
listening
on port 465 which are specific (or applicable) to qmailtoaster? I
searched wiki.qmailtoaster.com <http://wiki.qmailtoaster.com> and
found nothing. I did some general
googling and found several somewhat conflicting descriptions but I'm
unsure which apply to the configuration used in qmailtoaster.
My interest is because 465 has been reinstated (in Jan 2018) as the
preferred submission port due to security problems with STARTTLS
(https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8314).
Thanks,
