With the risk of going off-topic, I do not see the reason for encrypting
everything on the internet from a more practical point of view, as it just gives
overhead: It takes time to set up and maintain, takes processing power on both
ends, and in the case of Postfix, makes no sense since there is nothing to
protect.

Encryption gives (ideally) authenticity, confidentiality and integrity

But there is no need for that on a read-only site like Postfix'. In my opinion,
anyway.


The best
