What i use, that works good as I'm hosting mail domains for a few
friends who all have dynamic IP's, rather than allow the world to send,
I use the vpopmail roaming users option. It implements a pop-before-smtp
method of authing SMTP. As of yet, i havent gotten it to
IMAP-before-smtp, however the only person who probably even knows IMAP
exists, is myself, and I'm on the same lan as it is. very easy to add
192.168.100.* :)
I reccommend you check that out. Plus there are other patches to qmail
itself, not requiring vpopmail from inter7.
The url for vpopmail is www.inter7.com.
