 If your problem is that your Internet Service Provider is blocking

The OP specifically said that *he* had changed the port from 25 to 587... obviously he doesn't understand how smtp works...

Most probably he wanted to enable his users to send emails via his mail server using port 587, because some may have blocked access to port 25.

Proper solution is to open additionally port 587 and require users to authenticate in order to send mails through the server. If it is too complicated in postfix, admin can simply map port 587 to 25 - most probably that would work well.
