Public bug reported:

According to testssl postfix is vulnerable to "Secure Client-Initiated
Renegotiation" DoS according to testssl, and there seems to be no
obvious way to change this using configuration:

testssl@sendar:~$ ./testssl.sh -t smtp 127.0.0.1:25
...
 Secure Client-Initiated Renegotiation     VULNERABLE (NOT ok), DoS threat


1) root@sendar:/home/lilux/alain# lsb_release -rd
Description:    Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS
Release:        14.04
2) root@sendar:/home/lilux/alain#  apt-cache policy postfix
postfix:
  Installed: 2.11.0-1ubuntu1
  Candidate: 2.11.0-1ubuntu1
  Version table:
 *** 2.11.0-1ubuntu1 0
        500 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-updates/main amd64 
Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     2.11.0-1 0
        500 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/main amd64 Packages

3) What I expected to happen

Postfix should either be resilient to this out of the box, or there
should be a config option to make it so

4) What happened instead

Postfix is vulnerable to this condition, without an obvious way to
change this using configuration.
