Postfix : Port 25 is not opened in Linux, opened in firewall

Port 25 is not in opened port list

If you have installed postfix mail server and port 25 is not visible in opened port list. 
Have you opened it in iptables ( firewall ) ?
The line should be included in iptables.
-A INPUT -p tcp -m state -m tcp --dport 25 --state NEW -j ACCEPT

Yes, Yes, it is opened in firewall. I do not want this solution. 
Okay Okay

Open configuration file of postfix. /etc/postfix/main.cf
Check the parameter inet_interface, it should be
inet_interface=all
Now restart postfix again. It will be listed in opened port list.
