Given that, by definition, the majority of end users are on “Big Email”, if all of them adopt it, it will already have vastly more practical benefits than DANE has had thus far.
That said, I’ve looked around a bit and it doesn’t seem like it’s actually impractical to set up MTA-STS for your own server, unless I’m missing something? (For reference, I’ve been skimming https://roll.urown.net/server/mail/mta-sts.html https://roll.urown.net/server/mail/mta-sts.html ). Can you elaborate on why it’s not practical for small players?
- 1996 7y agoMaybe because he doesn't like serving https? Many people object to that, while they're fine with the DNS only part (you need to be able to curl https://mta-sts.DOMAIN/.well-known/mta-sts.txt https://mta-sts.DOMAIN/.well-known/mta-sts.txt )
- akerl_ 7y agoI’m not sure I understand why somebody would object to running an HTTPS server?
