RFC8314文档中对465端口和587端口的阐述

最近在学习SMTP的时候发现SMTP在使用加密传输的时候涉及到465和587两个端口，网上对两者之间的区别众说纷纭，后来查到了RFC官方文档中对于这个争论较久的问题的定义和详细说明，这里做转载和翻译用于记录。

1、RFC8314原文

我们查看RFC8314官方文档中的相关叙述，和该问题相关的主要是3.3、4.2、5.5和7.3这四个部分，由于本文只讨论两个端口的作用和历史缘由，因此涉及到加密过程和原理的4.2、5.5两个部分不在这里提及，其余部分的原文内容如下：

3.3. Implicit TLS for SMTP Submission

When a TCP connection is established for the “submissions” service
(default port 465), a TLS handshake begins immediately. Clients MUST
implement the certificate validation mechanism described in
[RFC7817]. Once the TLS session is established, Message Submission
protocol data [RFC6409] is exchanged as TLS application data for the
remainder of the TCP connection. (Note: The “submissions” service
name is defined in Section 7.3 of this document and follows the usual
convention that the name of a service layered on top of Implicit TLS
consists of the name of the service as used without TLS, with an “s”
appended.)

The STARTTLS mechanism on port 587 is relatively widely deployed due
to the situation with port 465 (discussed in Section 7.3). This
differs from IMAP and POP services where Implicit TLS is more widely
deployed on server
