--- Comment #4 from Chris Paulson-Ellis <ch...@paulson-ellis.org> ---
The STARTTLS RFC 3207 is not very helpful, describing it as a local matter and
using words like probably:

4.1 Processing After the STARTTLS Command

   ...

   The decision of whether or not to believe the authenticity of the
   other party in a TLS negotiation is a local matter.  However, some
   general rules for the decisions are:

   -  A SMTP client would probably only want to authenticate an SMTP
      server whose server certificate has a domain name that is the
      domain name that the client thought it was connecting to.
