Standard SMTPSMTP
None / STARTTLS

The original standard email SMTP port. Mostly used for SMTP relaying between mail servers. Today, almost all consumer ISPs and cloud hosting providers block outbound traffic on port 25 to prevent spam.

Do not use for client submission. Only use for server-to-server relaying if your host permits it.

Highly recommended for all modern email clients sending mail to an SMTP server.
465
Secure SMTPSMTPS
Implicit SSL/TLS

Originally registered for SMTPS, then deprecated, and recently revived. It requires an implicit SSL/TLS connection before any SMTP commands are sent.

Use if your application requires implicit SSL/TLS instead of STARTTLS.
