The RELAYCLIENT environment variable in the cdb file tcpserver uses
will turn off the rcpthosts checking.
This is documented in great detail in the FAQ, life with qmail, and
nearly everywhere else; it's the basic qmail relay control mechanism.
rcpthosts defines the systems that you want to receive for, and then
RELAYCLIENT selectively enables relaying for source IPs you want to
allow it to.
