    The problem your having is with the tcpserver config.
    It is one of the programs Qmail uses to handle the filtering of
    server ports.
    A good resource for information on relaying with tcpserver is
    http://www.palomine.net/qmail/selectiverelay.html

    In a quick two lines you need to:
    edit your cdb config (typical vpop install /home/vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp.cdb
    Remove and add a ':deny' clause for all non localhost entires.

    and then compile the cdb file into the format tcpserver reads it as #
    tcprules tcp.smtp.cdb tcp.smtp.temp < tcp.smtp

    Hope this helps,
    I tried to put all I could think of up here.
