The subject says it all.
I'd like to able to restrict outgoing mails to be sent only over TLS encrypted SMTP connections, by setting a option in the server.yml.

And related to this, please also add options:

To disable StartTLS entirely
To specify a custom SNI / expected hostname for TLS validation

If someone wants to implement this:

Copy the code of the SendMail function from https://go.dev/src/net/smtp/smtp.go
Replace the call to that same SendMail function in b531bc95ea/server/smtp_sender.go (L56) with the copied code
Alter the logic for when StartTLS is attempted / not attempted and which hostname is passed into the tls.Config

This is log-hanging fruit, but someone needs to do it!
