That's what they mean as a nexthop destination via the transport
table or similar.

The documentation for the TLS policy table clearly states that the
lookup key for the TLS policy is the *verbatim* nexthop.

So if the transport table reads:

    example.com smtp:[smtp.example.com]:smtp

Then the TLS policy entry for that would have to be:

    [smtp.example.com]:smtp        ...

exactly as specified in the transport table, or actual source
of nexthop information.
