Your post to this list was (according to the headers):
     11 Jan 2019 23:08:21 +0530

Yet on the IETF-smtp mailing list at:
     Wed, 9 Jan 2019 12:29:43 +0530

*You* wrote (in part):
   I'm the guy who proposed SMTP Over TLS on Port 26. Looks like that was
   dead end. So, now coming with another proposal.

Question: Why did you post something on NANOG that you already declared 
to the IETF yourself as a "dead end" 2 days earlier? I read all of the 
IETF emails on this idea. They explained why it is currently a 
no-starter as proposed.
