Yes, maybe it makes no sence that i write a mail from an local account to
exactly the same account, but bad people are using that for spam, because
they don't have to auth.

xmail could force authentication if MAIL_FROM and RCPT are local and the
same. i tested other mail servers, they behave like xmail, too. but i see a
security hole in that behaviour.

PS: Davide, i sent you a testmail over your server from
[EMAIL PROTECTED] to [EMAIL PROTECTED] - maybe you now
understand what i meant ;-)
