a) this would give a user the false impression, that "it was secured"
which with bad ciphers it isn't anymore.
b) it's getting even worse:
some mailservers even drop the TLS encrypted connection, if the hostname
in the DNS MX entry does not
match the servers presented certificates DN field, just to revert back
to cleartext transport to the exact same server.
sorry to say this, but the level of dumbness of devs implementing that
logic, isn't measureable anymore.
