As eblot pointed out, this is an installation issue. Without any new information, there is also nothing further we can do. Closing.

This is an installation issue more than an issue with Trac.
You need to tell Apache which network port to consider, because it acts as a server.
However, SMTP in Trac acts as a client, and your kernel routing table should be able to use the appropriate port to reach the SMTP server - except if you have several paths to reach this server.
Is your server in this latter case?
