Almost -- it needs to have a cert that matches its name and is signed
and/or matches the TLSA record. A lot of the default installations
I've seen still generate a self-signed cert. This isn't a huge burden
but it's not entirely trivial, particularly since the acme web
validation method doesn't work unless you can spin up a web server
with the same name as the mail server.

Yup.  I think that publishing stuff for inbound mta-sts is worth it
since for most people a large fraction of incoming mail will check it.
