For outgoing mail to generic (not specific domains with which you have
special security arrangements) Internet recipients:
main.cf:
smtp_tls_security_level = may
For incoming mail from generic Internet senders:
main.cf:
smtpd_tls_security_level = may
you'll need a self-signed RSA certificate, or in some cases, one signed
by a widely trusted CA, but only if some senders will be checking your
certificates (normally, with SMTP, no certificate checks take place).
For port 587 submission:
master.cf
submission inet ... smtpd
-o smtpd_tls_security_level=encrypt
...
