This is a list of clients and their config details (specific to us but it
doesn't take a genius to figure what to change) which we know work. Port 25
and 587 are STARTTLS and port 465 is tls-on-connect:

# Listen on multiple port

daemon_smtp_ports = 25 : 465 : 587

# Straight SSL connection for braindead clients like Outlook.

tls_on_connect_ports = 465
