There are no short-term plans to build a libtlsrpt client into
Postfix. That might happen after the client-server protocol has
been stable for a few years.

Before we can even think of building STS into Postfix, its SMTP TLS
policy support needs to be overhauled first. Viktor and I have been
thinking on and off about that since 2022 (instead of one level,
one would configure a range, or a collection of levels).

Additionally, STS requires an HTTPS client. This involves a) dragging
in a large C library dependency (never!), b) re-inventing that wheel
with Postfix C code, or c) implementing it in a better language
that has decent HTTPS support.
