MBSE (by default) only tosses inbound mail from secure sessions.  It is then 
the sysop's responsibility to check the unsecured inbound regularly and act on 
any mail received.  The issue with Mystic is that it will (by default) not 
allow incoming sessions from nodes that do not have a session password 
configured.
