Qmail requiring SMTP auth

Has anyone gotten netqmail patched with qmail-smtp-auth to not just allow, but require ESMTP authentication? I'm in the processes of setting up a port 587 (submission) server for my remote users to be able to send mail through while they're on the road, but I don't want it to usable without authentication.

LIke I said, currently with that patch, authentication works, but you can also send mail without it, which is bad from the perspective of preventing incoming spam.
