Is there any way to publish the fact that I would prefer to receive mail via 
SSL?

My understanding is that if a hostile party proxies the SMTP session such that 
the sender thinks that my MTA is incapable of SSL then the sender will happily 
send it unencrypted.

Is there any way for a MUA to specify that a message should be bounced if it 
can't be sent between MTAs via SSL?
