// Package mtasts implements MTA-STS (SMTP MTA Strict Transport Security, RFC 8461)
// which allows a domain to specify SMTP TLS requirements.
//
// SMTP for message delivery to a remote mail server always starts out unencrypted,
// in plain text. STARTTLS allows upgrading the connection to TLS, but is optional
// and by default mail servers will fall back to plain text communication if
// STARTTLS does not work (which can be sabotaged by DNS manipulation or SMTP
// connection manipulation). MTA-STS can specify a policy for requiring STARTTLS to
// be used for message delivery. A TXT DNS record at "_mta-sts.<domain>" specifies
// the version of the policy, and
// "https://mta-sts.<domain>/.well-known/mta-sts.txt" serves the policy.
