Hello I want to use Port 26 instead of Port 587 as an alternative, is that possible and how?

Vesta Cp Version: 0.9.8 on Ubuntu 12.04.5 x64.
Mail Server: Exim4

I also want to change smtp port to 26, how do we do that without breaking the automation?

debian 7, latest vesta cp, exim4

This is not a problem. Different distros like to mix up exim config as far as /etc/exim or /etc/exim4 and so on. On Ubuntu 14.04, for example, you would open /etc/exim4/exim4.conf and change this line:

daemon_smtp_ports = 25 : 465 : 587 : 2525

Add whatever you want. Worst that happens in the future is it gets removed on an update, then you add it back. No more risky than anything else really.
