Modifications to qmail FreeBSD port for adding MFCHECK patch support.

With this patch, qmail-smtpd performs a DNS MX lookup for host/domain part
of the SENDER address of any incoming E-Mail (based on the addresses in the
E-Mail's envelope). Results:

- qmail-smtpd verifies the existence of the SENDER's domain.
- qmail-smtpd rejects E-Mails with bogus hostnames/domains in the envelope
SENDER.
- qmail-smtpd writes a log-entry for rejected E-Mails.

Modification to original Makefile :
- Add option WITH_MFCHECK_PATCH
- Add patch description
- Add post patch command :
    @${ECHO_MSG} "1" > /var/qmail/control/mfcheck

Modification to distinfo :
- MD5 (qmail-1.03-mfcheck.3.patch) = 687655312016115f994c58a7dc942f53

It's an anti-spam feature.

Regards.
