you still refuse to understand the difference between STARTTLS
and SSL/TLS, we are speaking about 143/993 to not confuse
your ignorance by bliss more as it is already the case

postfix example for port 465, YES YOU CAN sue any other of the 65535
BUT if you configure "smtpd_tls_wrappermode=yes" for smtp on port
25 you will never ever receive any ssl/tls encrypted message because
it is NOT STARTTLS and and least posfix does not support tsl_wrappermode
for smtp AKA outgoing mail

if you still refuse to understand the difference i fear nobody
is able to help you on this world - people can write manpages
for you but you have to read them by yur own

smtps           inet  n       -       n       -       20      smtpd -o smtpd_sasl_auth_enable=yes
 -o smtpd_delay_reject=yes
 -o smtpd_client_restrictions=permit_sasl_authenticated,reject
 -o smtpd_tls_wrappermode=yes
