   The patch I submitted a while back does limit authenticated users to
their aliases as far as the envelope sender goes.  It does require some
work with the ldap database, such as adding a domain objectclass for
domain-specific basedns.
   The patch is in Hennings patch directory under "foreign" (life with
qmail-ldap will lead you to that directory).
   It does some other things that you may or may not like as well.  Read
the README carefully.
