Yeah, sorry, I used an ill-advised shorthand when I should have said ESMTP
plus common standard extensions.

But this is beside the point that SMTP is really weird from the TLS and
X.509 perspective in allowing multiple reference identities in one
transaction - no need to get funny with esoteric extensions.

(Actually you don't even need one transaction, different transactions in
the same connection are enough. For a practical example, Gmail splits
transactions that span multiple recipient domains using temporary errors
like "451 4.3.0 Multiple destination domains per transaction is
unsupported. Please try again." But Gmail is OK if you use multiple
different domains in different transactions in the same connection. The
transaction splitting is probably for per-domain content policies, but it
cannot do anything to help X.509 validation.)

XMPP is much more straightforward for X.509 in that the connection says up
front that it is dealing with a single domain.

The fun is happening further north - see below.
