It seems to be a client (I am using Outlook express) issue changing the port 
to 465 and removing unlinit somewhat solved the issue.

But in I have
grep spamdyke /var/log/mail.info
Sep 22 07:46:17 server spamdyke[4311]: ALLOWED from: d...@elektronik.dk to: 
d...@vip.cybercity.dk origin_ip: 127.0.0.1 origin_rdns: (unknown) auth: 
(unknown)

It doesn't ask for authentication 127.0.0.1 is enveloped in the ssl 
protocol. In fact in many cases users will be able to use my server as open 
relay. That is not what intended
