are you saying even if the RSA cert is self-signed, as long as the EC
cert is from a commercial CA (which it is) then RSA based ciphers will
still be negotiated ?

is this process automated by postfix in that i simply need to
additionally specify

smtp_tls_cert_file
smtp_tls_key_file
smtpd_tls_cert_file
smtpd_tls_key_file

did you mean i should not allow anonymous cipher suites ?

ie !aNULL:!eNULL:!ADH
