I see instructions on how to build my own RPMs from the source, but I don't
see a link to any built RPMs, and didn't see them on the sourceforge ftp
site.... that's why I installed from source, what's the point of building
your own RPM and then installing it, if you're just doing one machine?

The only reference I could find among the somewhat scattered documentation
was http://www.courier-mta.org/install.html#esmtpauth which tells me that an
auth step (in my case PAM) similar to that used to check mail is performed
before sending mail. Seems like that would make it harder for my smtp to be
used as an unauthorized relay.
Regardless, my question was directed to any experienced mail administrators
out there, and their empirical observations regarding this issue.
