Over the years there have from time to time been requests for

A key reason that SNI support is not there yet, is that we like to
do things right(TM) in Postfix or not at all, and it is not entirely
clear what the "right" configuration interface for server-side SNI
might me (we can ignore implementation difficulties for now).
I hope that SNI is dying long term. E.g. for IPv6 I again use the one IP
for one service so SNI is not needed anymore. This has a lot of
benefits, but sadly you need to still have the all-in-one approach for
the parallel IPv4 (my reason why I hope IPv4 is also dying soon,
probably unrealistic, I know).
I do not want SNI to die but IMHO SNI is not for mail servers.
Even with IPv6 I like SNI for web hosting. But it is not for mail servers.
I do however want to see IPv4 go away.
