I currently have all my users using the submission port for outgoing mail. They cannot send on port 25 at this time, and according to all of the online tests I have tried I am not an open relay or backscatter sprayer.
My master.cf currently shows:

smtp      inet  n       -       -       -       -       smtpd
 -o smtpd_use_tls=no
 -o smtpd_sasl_auth_enable=no
 -o content_filter=smtp-amavis:[127.0.0.1]:10024

If I change smtpd_sasl_auth_enable to yes, it allows some devices (handhelds, Treo, etc.) to send on port 25 if authenticated, but I want to make sure that this does not turn me into a relay or anything before doing so. I have attempted to relay through it while it's enabled, and they were denied. I decided to err on the side of caution and check with the experts here before "just doing it" in case there were any pitfalls or gotchas I do not know about.

Thanks.
