TLS is pretty much the same concept as SSL, it's just a newer protocol! Your
SMTP server has a certificate (issued either by an internal CA, or an
external one like Verisign), which the client uses to verify the SMTP server
is who it says it is, and you can also setup the clients with certificates
so the SMTP server can verify them. You could setup the SMTP server, so that
if the clients don't have a valid certificate, they can't connect (This gets
expensive if you don't have an internal CA to issue client certificates)
Take a look at

certification!
