## MTA-STS and DANE for improved security

### MTA-STS

By its very nature SMTP does not offer built-in security against man-in-the-middle attacks. To mitigate this risk, you can implement the MTA-STS policy, which instructs compatible senders to employ verified TLS encryption when communicating with your server.

To put this into practice, create a file named mta-sts.txt with the specified content and host it at `https://mta-sts.example.org/.well-known/`:

```
version: STSv1
mode: enforce
max_age: 604800
mx: mail.example.org
```

After that you need to add the following DNS records:

```
_mta-sts.example.org. TXT "v=STSv1; id=<id>"
_smtp._tls.example.org. TXT "v=TLSRPTv1;rua=mailto:postmaster@example.org"
```
`<id>` can be an arbitrary number but it's recommended to use the current unix timestamp (`date +%s`)

### DANE

It's also recommended to set up a TLSA (DNSSEC/DANE) record for further security enhancement. Go [here](https://ssl-tools.net/tlsa-generator) to generate a TLSA record. Set the port to 25, Transport Protocol to "tcp", and specify the MX hostname as the Domain Name.

After adding the TLSA DNS record you need to enable opportunistic DANE in postfix by doing the following:
```
postconf -e 'smtpd_use_tls = yes'
postconf -e 'smtp_dns_support_level = dnssec'
postconf -e 'smtp_tls_security_level = dane'

echo "dane unix - - n - - smtp
-o smtp_dns_support_level=dnssec
-o smtp_tls_security_level=dane" >> /etc/postfix/master.cf
```

## Benefited from this?
