I found this lines in mainlog:

2012-02-13 16:25:53 1Rwxmr-0003tG-09 <= havicker@??? H=(User) [4.79.231.188] P=esmtpa A=login S=1695
2012-02-13 16:25:54 1Rwxmr-0003tG-09 => 23vbennett@??? R=dnslookup T=remote_smtp H=gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com [173.194.65.27]
2012-02-13 16:25:54 1Rwxmr-0003tG-09 Completed

I think, this is relaying.

There is the string A=login

Do you mean, this is the user name? But I mean, we have not a user named "login".
