qmail-smtpd-auth-secure is a patch for qmail that enables it to support SMTP AUTH in a truly secure manner.
This patch allows a forced SMTP AUTH
no matter the source IP of the sender, but only for local hosted domain users.
Further more it only allows messages which have the same MAIL FROM: and SMTP
AUTH user to avoid sender misrepresentation.

First, you must apply Krzysztof
Dabrowski's qmail-smtpd-auth patch to enable authenticated SMTP in qmail-smtpd.
Notice how shamelessly I have ripped off the format of Krzysztof's website!
Then, apply the qmail-smtpd-requireauth
patch on top of Krzysztof's patch.
Then simply apply this patch into the qmail source directory:
patch < qmail-smtpd-auth-secure.patch
This way, in your tcp.smtp file you
can have something like:
192.168.1.:allow,REQUIREAUTH="",.....
:allow,REQUIREAUTH="",.....
