Hm.

Your problem is difficult to understand:

  Usually "getId" i callable by "Anonymous". Why are you worried?

  Usually, using a "MailHost" is protected quite heavily.
  You either must relax the protection (making your site open
  for email abuse) or use a Proxy role. But in the second
  case, you can use 'Manager' such that you can call
  any non-private method.

So, what does not work?
