Steven raises an interesting point. Having looked at various STARTTLS implementations it appears to me that if not the designers of STARTTLS then at least the authors of STARTTLS-enabled MTAs appeared to have envisioned the use of STARTTLS primarily to secure and authenticate email submission, not MTA-to-MTA SMTP transfer.
I agree. In fact, the primary reason I use (and recommend) STARTTLS is to defeat logging by snoopy employers and/or clients.
