Like Victor, I don't know any MTA in common use that implements TURN.

I can imagine situations on private networks where it might be useful. Despite
what some other people (not you) keep asserting, we do not know all of the nooks
and crannies where devices might be using features like TURN in ways that make
sense. So my inclination would be to change nothing, or at most a short note
that it's risky unless you have an external way to be sure what host you're
talking to.  I definitely do NOT want to offer advice about what that external
way might be.

R's,
John
