I didn't see it in the faq either. It has been mentioned a few times on
the mailing list though.
I have had to do it for a two servers in the past too.
For your friends server, look in your spec about the "port" smtp transport
option. And then maybe also look at the "domains" option.
For your server for receiving mail, read about the daemon_smtp_port main
configuration setting or -oX command-line switch. (Also, maybe the
local_interfaces option, but I don't see my spec clearly explaining using
number as the port.)
Good luck,
