I don't know what "industrial strength" means either, but I can
think of a couple of straightforward ways to do it.
One is to patch qmail-remote to do SMTP AUTH. Several people
have done this, for example you can start here:
http://tomclegg.net/qmail/#qmail-remote-auth
Another possibility would be to use a freestanding smtp auth client like
msmtp, and virtual domains to route mail through it, e.g. set up a
user called remote, put the msmtp config info into ~remote/.msmtprc,
then put this in virtualdomains:
:remote
and put somehing like this in ~remote/.qmail-default
| msmtp --from="$SENDER" -- "$DEFAULT@$HOST"
