This type of thinking is how we get ants.
It is trivial to set up a mail server with TLS and if you don't have fucking TLS bounce it through a protocol upgrade server. If you understood the type of secrets that are getting trivially intercepted you'd realize that a couple hard days for a couple of lazy sys admins is a tiny price to pay for the drastic increase in security.
People are literally getting killed because we're so fucking lazy. Even three letter agencies are sending mail without TLS, this is madness.
