For Postfix 2.11 (2.10 is almost out the door, so it is too late for
this year) I've layed the groundwork for an RFC 6698 (DANE TLSA)
implementation, and expect that the RFC will be fully supported by
the time 2.11 is released early in 2014.

        https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6698

Assuming DNSSEC is adopted widely (and perhaps DANE is a real
incentive) this will make key management for SMTP substantially
more scalable, and perhaps some day the majority of SMTP servers
will have verifiable TLS certs verified by a public key fingerprint
in DNS. As easy as:

    $ openssl x509 -in /usr/pkg/etc/mail-cert.pem -pubkey -noout |
        openssl pkey -pubin -outform DER |
        openssl dgst -sha256
    (stdin)= 89ef5b500559318251538fb1da0bd309d38bd021eb0311a3227be7b331b05bac

DNS:

    _25._tcp.smtp.example.com. IN TLSA (
        3 1 1 89ef5b500559318251538fb1da0bd309
              d38bd021eb0311a3227be7b331b05bac )

(plus appropriate RRSIG records). And you get CA-free certificates
that (once other MTAs implement DANE) everyone can verify.
