Uhm... this maybe a stupid questions, but how is this supposed to
work? Don't you need to have keys exchanged or both systems
configured with a shared secret? How can an IPSec session be set up
to someone who is not somehow listed in the configuration of that
mail server? Is there some kind of free-for-all IPSec?

Frank
