It's impossible for anyone to say without further information, but *if*
your provider requires you to authenticate using a userid and a
password, and *if* these are being sent in plain text, it makes sense
that the connection should be using TLS to prevent others from picking
up your password.

The error messages you sent strongly indicate that the receiving server
required TLS, and since this could not be established, your
authentication failed. 

AFAIR, setting TLS on a postfix client is no big deal.
