Review Comment:
   hmm my understanding is that this PR only covers the enforcement part of the 
MTA-STS rfc as a receiver of emails. 
   it does not cover the sending side (RemoteDeliveryMailet) which should : 
   - fetch the policy record from DNS
   - try to connect to the remote host and start a TLS/SSL session 
   - apply the policy (for example refuse to send to hosts that don't have a 
TLS/SSL capability)
   
   isn't it a bit misleading to state that james implements the standard when 
the implementation is partial ? (not sure what the track record is here)
