How feasible (or infeasible) is it today to configure manditory TLS
encryption on a public facing server?  Are there any stats on the
percentage of mail servers that don't support TLS and the percentage
of known large volume mail servers that don't support TLS (I suspect
zero on the latter)?

btw- it would be nice if there was a version of
smtp_tls_security_level=dane with a fallback of secure or encrypt.

I also notice there is no smtpd_tls_security_level= dane or dane-only.
This could also be handled in smtpd_tls_req_ccert = dane or dane-only.

It would also be good if the fallback from dane was setable.  Perhaps
a smtp_tls_security_dane_fallback=* and
smtpd_tls_security_dane_fallback=* would solve this so that a value
higher that "may" can be the fallback.

btw- postfix docs cite rfc2487 dates back to 1999.  A lot has changed.
rfc2487 is obsoleted by rfc3207 but the must not ... starttls is still
there.  So my question is about disregarding the must not regarding
STARTTLS.

Any stats on how much would break if client and/or server certs were
required and with either DANE or CA signed in the next hop?

Also any stats on implementation of REQUIRETLS?
