note that you should recompile courier-imap if you change

vpopmail library.

pmail config.h file for the location of the tcp.smtp file.
The vpopmail config program checks several directories to locate the
tcp.smtp file. If /etc/tcp.smtp exists I think the configure script
will find that one first.
The config.h file has the details of which tcp.smtp file is used.

e using the

To only allow localhost to relay and require all other IPs to
use smtp auth you could put this one line in your tcp.smtp file
127.0.0.1:allow,RELAYCLIENT=""
Then rebuild your tcp.smtp.cdb file using tcprules.

If vpopmail configures you can copy those files from

I think smtp auth requires a clear text password for CRAM-MD5 authentication
