Two questions:

1) what is comp.std.misc?
=====

A newsgroup for discussing standards in computing or the Internet.
Standards-group RFCs generally end up becoming the approved standard.

=====
2) not knowing what current SMTP-related standards are currently
in-place now, or how these various details of RFC 7208 work, will the
SMTP software that my server has been running for the past 13 years
(Post.Office, circa 1999/2001) continue to be able to send and receive
mail to external hosts on port 25?  Because that's all I really care
about.
=====

Yes, and if you ignore RFC 7208, you'll get all the forged spam you deserve 
as well.
