Something that doesn't have these limitations:

http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2487#section-7

This is also relevant (not just for Postfix):

http://www.postfix.org/TLS_README.html#client_tls_encrypt

"Despite the potential for eliminating passive eavesdropping attacks,
mandatory TLS encryption is not viable as a default security level for
mail delivery to the public Internet. Most MX hosts do not support TLS
at all, and some of those that do have broken implementations. On a host
that delivers mail to the Internet, you should not configure mandatory
TLS encryption as the default security level. "
