Run the smtpd on 26. Or send via 587.
Use outbound mail service providers that you can integrate via HTTP API
Outbound port 25 blocked? You have to use a relay, no other way around it. That relay can be an HTTP API (although I don't know how one would do that), or it can be through a smarthost.
Also keep in mind that taking action get around any blocks your host has put in place will generally result in an unfavorable response when discovered. We look forward to your LET post bashing them about it.
Mailgun.
Do you think any possibility to do this without using an external relay.
You could always use a GRE tunnel or a VPN and see if you can get the mail to use that interface using iproute2 or binding the service if you can.
What aboul using SSL (465) or SMTP through port 587? Especially using port 587 should be possible using some tricks, but that'll depend a bit on the kind tool/script/software you'll be using to send the e-mail.
Do you just want to connect to remote SMTP servers, or are you going to host one yourself too?

You can use remote mail server and send email.
That's for inbound email to the server, eg clients connecting to send their email.
What you want to do is use Exim smart host support to relay your email via a third party, something like this https://3sq.re/blog/2014/07/configure-exim-cpanel-use-mailgun
may I ask why do you have the port 25 blocked for if you have a cpanel vps? let me guess you are doing some "mass mailing" correct? and the host for protection of themself against spam blocked port 25 to prevent you from spamming or "mass mailing" people and landing their ip's on spamhaus or worse.
which like people said going around blocks your provider put in place will likely lead to you being terminated immediately upon notice of your provider you are doing this.
by the way read the rules on this topic please it has a topic specifically for asking for help with "circumventing" things.
sendgrid or mailgun
You don't.
Sometimes I wish LET would add comment downvoting feature.
It could be that you just want to run a cPanel server for the purpose of hosting. And as part of hosting you may want to allow the clients to send and receive emails.
But there are many hosts out there who simply deem sending any form of email as mass mailing or SPAM, or simply treat anyone that wants to send emails a SPAMMER regardless of the content.
It could also be that your VPS provides uses a shit provider like SoftLayer who block all outbound connections on port 25 on their network, so you have to put in place alternatives.
Me too, but it's neither here nor there.
