I assume you mean the SECURITY extension.  I didn't try it, but it
seems to be a per-message option that can be routinely enabled for
selected domains.  Thus, the server works for both the walled garden
and the Internet at large.  And it bounces messages that are destined
within the walled garden if the target host's certificate isn't trusted.

Does that keep track of hosts' certificates?

It doesn't seem to automatically move hosts in/out of the walled
garden, does it?
