1// Package autotls automatically configures TLS (for SMTP, IMAP, HTTP) by
2// requesting certificates with ACME, typically from Let's Encrypt.
5// We do tls-alpn-01, and also http-01. For DNS we would need a third party tool
6// with an API that can make the DNS changes, as we don't want to link in dozens of
7// bespoke API's for DNS record manipulation into mox.
