Note that there are TWO relevant RFCs: RFC 4409 and RFC 5068. The latter
says:
3.1. Best Practices for Submission Operation
Submission Authentication:
MSAs MUST perform authentication on the identity asserted during
all mail transactions on the SUBMISSION port, even for a message
having a RCPT TO address that would not cause the message to be
relayed outside of the local administrative domain.
