First one that came to mind after reading the initial post was "Devil in the Dark". Then "The Corbomite Maneuver". Both are about having a run-in with an unknown race, and after initial hostilities, the Starfleeters find a way to bring about a peaceful result. And that's a theme that continues not only through TNG but, arguably, on into DS9 and VOY, as little as I know about those series (so no surprise that episodes from the original series occurred to me).
