I'm not sure this can be resolved. Environment variables can't be
altered once the qmail-smtpd process has been started:
http://www.spamdyke.org/documentation/FAQ.html#SUGGESTION7
spamdyke always sets the RELAYCLIENT variable because it needs to
override qmail's filters when a client meets spamdyke's criteria for
relaying. Specifically, if a client authenticates or matches a
whitelist, spamdyke needs to prevent qmail from blocking the message
later. I suppose I could change spamdyke to not set the RELAYCLIENT
variable if authentication is turned off and no whitelists are
enabled... but the method to trigger/stop the variable would be so
complex I think it would cause more confusion than it's worth.
What does the rest of your spamdyke configuration look like? Could you
use it with no whitelists, no configuration directories and "smtp-auth"
set to "none" or "observe"?
