DANE requires a provider to validate DNSSEC. I know not all of them do that. DANE takes it even a step further, so I'm going to assume even fewer providers implement that
Microsoft specifically announced it last februari for Exchange Online (not really a SMTP SaaS like eg. send grid) so it's special enough that it's worthy of an announcement - https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/exchange-team-blog/releasing-outbound-smtp-dane-with-dnssec/ba-p/3100920 https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/exchange-team-blog/re...
I emailed postmark if they supported STARTTLS/DANE, they replied they supported opportunistic STARTTLS. Not an outright "No" but might be a failure to understand the questions
So plenty of reasons to not assume DANE is implemented unless a provider can actually confirm it is.
- necovek 4y agoYeah, it'd be great if there were test target SMTP servers with all useful configurations to test relay SMTP server behaviour in regards to DANE. I am now definitely curious, though I can't promise I'll find the time to set up the servers either. DANE on top of DNSSEC is merely a policy (retry rules and no fallback to unencrypted comms), so it is relatively simple to implement — though you are right that this doesn't mean it is! I think adding gmail as the largest email provider to your list of mail services to check is also useful.
