I don't understand why people are trying to reinvent the wheel when we
just defined a fairly round one a few months ago.
DANE and MTA-STS provide an evolutionary and backwards compatible path for the
transition to fully encrypted and authenticated email flows for those that
care, but cannot force anyone to care and deploy them. What we are discussing
is whether we could collectively exert gentle pressure (i.e. encrypt your email
by this date or you won't be allowed to communicate any more) so that even
those that don't care start to care.
The reports from MTA-STS give us a baseline. It's a lot easier to propose
a flag day if you can credibly say that 98% of all non-bot mail uses TLS
now.
