That is a bad idea. There are still enough places using it that blocking it
will just introduce problems, including as Steve mentioned, unnecessary
unencrypted mailstreams.

A grep just told me that the biggest "offenders" on our MX for the last 4
weeks include 2 multinationals, a telco and a certain DMARC related mailing
list that we're all on.

The PCI DSS gave it a reprieve until the end of June this year so maybe
things will change as part of that compliance process.
