qmail SMTP-AUTH control mechanism is very good way to stop spams and give flexibility user to send email from anywere in the world. But current SMTP-AUTH patches do not check whether from address and SMTP-AUTH username is same.

The following patch will simply reject the mail if the SMTP-AUTH username does not match with the from address.
To be enable use this patch SMTP-AUTH username must be in email address format (user@domain.com). This can be
possible only in qmail+vpopmail or qmail-ldap (if the uid is in email address format) installation.

This patch is based on netqmail-1.06 and Erwin Hoffmann’s qmail-authentication-0.68 patch. But I believe that you can simply integrate your qmail source.

PS:  qmail-remote-logging.patch and qmail-smtp-auth-fromcheck.patch are integrated into JMS1 combined patch and Shupp Toaster patch.
