The reason I posted is that even though it's an old issue, apparently now spammers are discovering it. If you follow the thread, it seems it's a (common?) mistake in the tcpserver setup where the user has omitted the hostname argument. In that case, relaying is wide open for anyone using smtp-auth and any user/pass. If anyone has other details (which smtp-auth patch is at issue, etc.), post away so it gets in the archives.
