If you have remote users with other email clients you can use pop/imap before 
smtp.
I im using phpgw together with a lot of other email clints that connect from
unknown IPs.
My only two choices was to use either imap-before-smtp or smtp auth. (open up 
your
for smtp relaying for everyone is not an option).

Iám using postfix with postgres extensions.
Dbmail as pop/imap server, and phpgw.

With this solution everytime someone log in with pop/imap, postfix gets their IP
and opens up relying for 3600 seconds. Since most email clients does pop/imap 
auth
before they send anything this solution work without problem.
