By default, at least on Debian, TLS and IPv6 (if available, even if only using link local addresses) are on by default, so there's not too much that needs to be done to use TLS on the SMTP side.

TLS wasn't enabled on my Debian using Postfix, so I guess it depends on more factors than just "running Debian". IPv6 seems to be on by default, yes.

I can confirm that STARTTLS was enabled out of the box on my Debian unstable
system... using the snakeoil cert of course.

IPv6 (port 25 incoming) was not enabled out of the box. I needed to add
"inet_protocols = ipv4, ipv6" to enable it.
