SWAKS looks useful, but it seems to require a test message to be
sent.

Before sending an email, I generally want to know:

  1) will the other server talk to me?
       (Many poorly configured servers block using a DNSBL)

  2) does the other server have TLS?

  3) are there any trust issues with the keys?

I know I can find all that out by looking up the MX server and
telnetting in.  But ideally there would be a tool that does this work,
and either dumps easily-parsible results or maintains its own
database.
