Description
Hi,
There's currently a lot of work being done within UTA ("Utilising TLS in applications" - https://datatracker.ietf.org/wg/uta/documents) regarding mail security.
Strong contenders are:
- SMTP-STS (to be splitted into multiple documents)
- DEEP (MUA-MTA)
These standards are being actively worked on and aren't finished yet. They will be by around end of the year. Once they are RFCs and implemented in software, we should support these. Hence: we need to start thinking now about how we transition users from our current approach to these new security standards once they're deployment-ready.
I'm looking for comments, especially from @pde as he's intimately familiar with Certbot.
