Hello Doug, it's happening in ietf-smtp. This is my first proposal. So
haven't created the I-D yet.

I'm not sure how to create one.

That's why I published my proposal in the medium. Please see the medium
link I posted earlier.

Thanks.

Hello NANOG, Belated new year wishes.

I would like to gather some feedback from you all.

I'm trying to propose two things to the Internet Standard and it's
related to SMTP.

(1) STARTTLS downgrade protection in a dead simple way

(2) SMTPS (Implicit TLS) on a new port (26). This is totally optional.

I posted my proposal in IETF mailing list. I got very good feedback
there. Some support my proposal. Many are against it.


What is the IETF draft name?
Which IETF mailing list did this discussion happen on?
