The simple ORBS tester (the one that doesn't actually try to receive the
mail message back again) returns false positives with qmail.  (And with
Postfix too, IIRC.)  If you have a rcpthosts file and you don't relay mail
to a sendmail machine that supports percent-hack and other sorts of
things, you should be fine.

qmail doesn't need patches to not relay.  The default qmail configuration
doesn't relay.
