Here's a problem I'm encountering.....

I have this qmail configuration running, and i've set the rcpthosts to be of my own domain so that it's not an open relay. I've also setup several IP addresses in the cdb file so that those IPs can be a open relay, so that they can send e-mails without problems. However, I just realized that if I use its webmail interface (thru webmin), it ignores the CDB list when sending e-mail! that makes any user who uses the web interface impossible to send any e-mails, except the ones listed in rcpthosts. I don't want to kill the rcpthosts, for obvious reasons. Now, I'm tweaking around in usermind module, and I realize that I could use sendmail instead of SMTP to send e-mails instead. Would that screw things up?
