All I wanted to make sure is that things weren't going to get too hairy with
respect to the environment variables needed to control relaying with qmail.
Having been on the receiving end of one attack, I didn't want to
inadventently open up our systems to another. That's one of the
disadvantages of qmail being so quick to process messages and having a 2mb
leased line connection!
