Thanks all for the information.

I try to explain better what is my goal:

i want to force all my sasl users to use SSL, so i've given them 2 option:

you can auth using STARTSSL on standard port 25
you can auth using TLS/SSL on standard port 465

reading your answer i've understand that the service on 465 is already
configured to force encryption, but i can't to that on port 25 because this
port is used also for standard delivery from other mailserver which is not
encrypted.

So:

can i force force the STARTSSL on port 25 only when the user want to auth?

Reading above, smtpd_tls_auth_only should be the correct answer, not?

Thanks
