Yes that is the 64 million dollar question. And the answer is you
have no way to doing that, so telling your mail server to listen on
any other port is useless as all public email servers send email on
port 25. There is no simple cost free way of side stepping your
ISP's block on port 25 like you can do with port 80 redirects for
web servers to get around the ISP port 80 block.

Yes, but how do you presuade other mailservers to send you mail
on port 225?
