You've misunderstood tunnels.  213.88.128.169 and 130.236.218.63 must be
able to talk to each other over normal IP protocols (specificaly, over
IP protocol 4).  If that is the case, you use the above configuration to
connect the tunnel between them and then do something like "ifconfig gif0
10.0.0.1 10.0.0.2" to configure the tunneled addresses.  After doing
the same thing at the other end (with the addresses swapped) you should
be able to telnet to 10.0.0.2 port 25.
