A URL of this Internet Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-uta-tls-for-email/ Technical Summary: This specification updates current recommendation for the use of Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol to provide confidentiality of email between a Mail User Agent (MUA) and a Mail Submission Server or Mail Access Server. This document updates RFC8314 so that the minimum version for TLS is TLS 1.2. Working Group Summary: The initial version of this document was issued (as individual draft) in September 2018. The draft was adopted in November 2018. The support for adoption was solid. The document is very short and straightforward, so it was only briefly discussed in the WG suggesting minor text improvements and catching nits. Document Quality: This document doesn't define any new protocol, it only updates RFC8314 by deprecating using TLS 1.1 in mail submission protocols. The document is straightforward.
