Yes Postfix MTA mail server uses port 25 by default. Who's your web host some web hosts block port 25 until you contact them to request unblocking by providing ID verification. Some web hosts outright ban port 25 and some allow alternative ports for sending i.e. 2525. You'd need to contact your web host to get clarification. If you can change Postfix MTA outbound mail from 25 to 2525, that would be one option. Usually, in such changes I use Amazon SES SMTP transactional email and setup Postfix with Amazon SES Postfix relay so that server outbound emails via Postfix go through Amazon SES. Amazon SES Postfix relay is via TLS port 587.

Yes thanks - Hetzner I gave up with Vultr as they wouldn't not unblock 25 for 1 email a month for anything - total muppets With Hetzner - thought it was 3 invoices - so as its 1 invoice and I have just paid ill open a ticket with them and hope they are better than Vultr ! Thanks
Well Hetzner unblocked port 25 and 465 for me today - was no trouble to get the block lifted So in a score +1 Hetzner & -1 Vultr
