I might note that the 11 distinct certificates are associated with 12
distinct MX hosts, for which the TLSA record types are:
8 3 0 1 - Breaks with automated key rotation sans DNS update
1 3 0 2 - Breaks with automated key rotation sans DNS update
2 3 1 1 - Works if certificate rotation leaves the key unchanged
1 2 0 1 - Works provided issuer certificate is unchanged.
The "2 0 1" site published a TLSA record for the LE intermediate
issuer CA, not the ultimate root CA. That seems to have a 5 year
lifetime, but it is not clear how often a new intermediate will be
fielded. That user will have to watch out for that:
Subject = CN=Let's Encrypt Authority X1,O=Let's Encrypt,C=US
Issuer = CN=DST Root CA X3,O=Digital Signature Trust Co.
Not before = 2015-10-19T22:33:36Z
Not after = 2020-10-19T22:33:36Z
