07 Remediation
Upgrade to hMailServer 6.3.6, which verifies DANE-TA as well as DANE-EE records and requires TLS to a host whose validated TLSA records are all unusable. Until then, an SMTP route for each recipient domain concerned that names its mail exchangers with the connection security 'STARTTLS (required)' prevents delivery in cleartext to that domain.
