Port 25 being blocked..have tried following instructions re:enabling submission to activate port 587 and 465, but I still can't sent through these ports. I can connect to port 587 with telnet
Can you suggest way forward?

Howdy -- if you're able to telnet to port 587, that's a good start!
What error(s) do you get when trying to send an email via port 587?
Do any error messages show up in your mail log, /var/log/maillog?
Also, note that port 587 uses SSL/TLS encryption -- and that your email client would need to be configured to use that when communicating on port 587.
