There is a need for TLS in some inter-domain relaying. Some mail providers
use it, by agreement, to provide a secure transport. The environment is not
your usual shared hosting. The setup is more of a S/MIME "replacement" as TLS
is viewed as cheaper and easier to deploy as it doesn't require as many
changes for the end-user.
And the number of setups that actually use TLS in this situation in a
secure manner is vanishingly small. Just installing a certificate and
turning on TLS is NOT enough.
