But when i telnet to 465, i do not see 220 in response. is it normal? [root@jet postfix]# telnet localhost 465 Trying ::1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'.
Expected behaviour. Bear in mind that 465 is the old deprecated SMTPS (SMTP over SSL) port which just runs SMTP over an SSL session. Postfix cannot send a greeting on that port without completing the SSL handshake first, but Telnet doesn't speak SSL. So Postfix is just waiting in vain for the SSL handshake.
I thought port 465 SSL was deprecated
Correct.
and replaced with port 587 TLS?
Not quite. It's replaced with STARTTLS which works over port 25 (SMTP) as well as 587 (MSP).
