When you changed 587 to not be tls_on_connect, did that affect your ability to connect to that port? It wasn’t clear to me from your earlier posts whether it did or not.

If so, can you successfully starttls on 587? Or 25 for that matter?

Can you establish a trivial connection to localhost on each port with (e.g.) telnet - where it doesn’t matter if SSL can be negotiated? Is there a local packet filter configured (as opposed to the external firewall) that could be blocking it?
