qmail will not relay when correctly configured. Check the FAQ and the
wonderful document 'Life with Qmail' - especially the items about the
environmentvariables and about the file rcpthosts.

I've often read that some spam-testing sites will say qmail relays, but
that this is false; qmail accepts some mails and mails them to a local user
but won't relay them. For the sites, acceptance = relaying. Falsely.
Good luck,
