That's because Netscape uses your SMTP daemon to inject mail. See below.

No, don't do that. If you add enough domains there, your machine becomes
an open relay.

If you use tcpserver to serve qmail-smtpd, then in its rules file, have
something like (assuming your IP address is 10.1.2.3):
10.1.2.3:allow,RELAYCLIENT=""
This will allow SMTP connections from 10.1.2.3 to send to any domain.
