If your server is configured properly, you will not be
an open relay. There are some relay tests that qmail
'fails', however, the deliveries are supported by
the RFCs, and they fail trying to deliver to non-existant
local users.
Qmail, when configured properly, with roaming users software,
such as vpopmail's implementation, will not be an open relay.
