From what the author found, it seems pretty clear to me that that patent is nothing more than an idea on paper right now. If the device doesn't send anything over the network for a "handshake" then it isn't a handshake at all. Also, I'm not sure if the author added detail or not but it makes it quite clear that the web interface simply adds a row to the handshake table with the fields entered and nothing else. He also found that the only other place in the GUI that references this table at all is to display the existing "handshakes".
As far as how it actually works on the device the author also showed the relevant portion of the postfix config where it checks if the domain is in the handshake table and if it is then connect to that IP on port 26 with the hardcoded default cert.
Maybe they plan on creating something based on that patent someday but right now what they're selling as based on that patent has nothing to do with it.
