How to set up a connection to the mail server from outside?

On the ubuntu 18.04 server, dovecot + postfix works, sending / receiving letters works, but I can only connect to the server locally, and I need to connect via spark, thunderbird and similar clients, in /var/log/mail.log when connecting via the client - empty. What to do?
PS I'm not very good at this.

Open ports or forward if the server is behind a connection router using the ipmap \ pop3 and smtp protocols ...
Then you can connect to an external address if you have one.
But letters will go to spam most likely if the domain is not configured correctly
