You do not run Postfix on any port. You might run a Postfix daemon on a=20
port. E.g., smtpd. In place of the service listed in /etc/services, you=20
simply enter the port number in the left-hand column of master.cf.
Watch out, 'cos a hell of a lot of other things might bite. All depends=20
on what you want to do.

It's in the docs, somewhere. (I don't remember where offhand, but I
know I've read it several places. Possibly even in the comments at
the top of master.cf)

Sure.

Why you can't find your system administrators:

| isn't it enough (and better) to change /etc/services ?
It's enough, but arguably not better. If any other program uses the
smtp entry in /etc/services in any context other than connecting to
this locally running postfix then /etc/services must not be changed.

Why would anyone change /etc/services? Has IANA recently changed the
port for SMTP?
