I'm interested to hear more about those situations.
It seems like the primary concerns with additional costs associated
with MTA-STS are
* the cost of buying a CA-signed cert (but what about Let's Encrypt?)
* the cost of hosting your own HTTP server if you are in a hosted environment
* the cost of hosting an HTTP server if you are hosting your own MTA
Depending on the level of automation, I think the extra effort
required by MTA-STS ranges from "none" to, unfortunately, "some."
But I don't fully understand the scenario where it's a significant
economic burden beyond the basic cost of hosting an MTA. Can someone
help explain this better?
The mail service depends on a DNS service and a web service. The
system requires two CA-signed certificates. The person responsible
for all that will have to assess the extra effort.
I came across the following thread:
https://support.google.com/mail/thread/10350042 The people on this
mailing list can probably sort out such issues. Whether the audience
out there can do that is an open question.
