while im not sure how debian places the files for qmail but
i run 3 qmail servers currently compiled from source and
config stuff is in /var/qmail/control there is a file
called rcpthosts which you specify the networks/domains
that you want to allow to relay. add the network and/or
domain(s) your going to relay for to it and it should
allow you. see the qmail docs for rcpthosts for more info
as i am not certain the format of the file(i know sendmail
much better then qmail ..)
