Default Encrypting SMTP

Staying in touch with others on $$$net is one thing and not easily done without providers or will need an own system with constant address, MX record and such.

But Running own MTAs may still stay interesting for building something "old and new at the same time" bypassing the providers and even can work without static IP. Using SMTP over TOR, I2P or other easily available VPN allikes, we can build real P2P mail structures having (atmittedly cryptic but) constant addresses. Adding some trusted gateways to $$$net may grow into this later, but would add back a kind of provider, which may not be so desire-able when we got used to pure P2P mail.

Configuring Postfix for SMTP over TOR is only a matter of minutes. Finding a peer already using this is a different story.

Let's play with this?
