No. It's a sip call. That's perfectly normal. ANY sip call from the Internet
to a user on the system would not be requiring permissions or even to pass
through a gateway. Only outgoing calls do that.

Probably a sipvicious variant. If your system is setup properly I'm not sure
I would worry. If you don't want to it to that you can consider blocking
measures at your firewall.  There is NO way to prevent this altogether as it
is byproduct of the protocol.

You can't have an email system available to the internet without it saying
hello. You cannot have a sip server on the internet trying to reach a user
AND ask for credentials, because then noone gets to say hello.
