Hi All,

I'm trying to get to speed on the DANE implementation in Postfix, it appears to 
support only DANE certificate usage 2 (Trust anchor assertion) and 3 
(Domain-issued certificate). Is there a particular reason why the public 
CA-signed certificate types wouldn't be supported as these are more likely (as 
of today, at least) to be installed on business and commercial platforms?

Extract from http://www.postfix.org/TLS_README.html#client_tls_dane:
"The Postfix SMTP client supports only certificate usages "2" and "3" (with "1" 
treated as though it were "3"). See tls_dane_trust_anchor_digest_enable for 
usage "2" usability considerations. Support for certificate usage "1" is an 
experiment, it may be withdrawn in the future. Server operators SHOULD NOT 
publish TLSA records with usage "1"."

Sincerely,

Kevin San Diego
