@jeroen @jwildeboer There is a (sorta) Euro Let's Encrypt, BuyPass Go (something I use for my XMPP and other random bits) works fine, and is just a small config tweak, Yes they are a commercial CA, but they are European, and not Let's Encrypt (they don't do wildcards though), and they have a commercial purpose overall, I am ultimately fine with this, your mileage may vary

(no hate to Lets Encrypt, they are lovely people, but I do worry about their scale compared to the rest of the CA ecosystem)

@jwildeboer @jeroen I mean sure, but does this actually matter? (outside of XMPP I guess that actually does use client auth)

The SMTP argument that everyone is bringing up doesn't seem to be the default configuration deployed at scale. It sucks that full CA trusted client auth is going to be a little more tricky, but I generally prefer when the complaining not just defending weird non standard configs
