You're not going to find any ESMTP AUTH solutions for qmail that don't
involve patching qmail's source.  I use Krzysztof Dabrowski's patch, and it
works like a charm.  There was no problem applying the patch, no problem
compiling the patched source, and it has worked as advertised.

No.  If the remote server doesn't try to authenticate itself, the
RELAYCLIENT environment variable is not changed.  That means that if the
variable was already set by tcpserver, it will remain set.
