That file is documented as having *four* fields, the last
being the allowable IP addresses, so it should really have
another "*" at the end, but I think the three fields should
still work.

Try turning on "debug" to see what the complaint is.  First,
add a line such as...

daemon,kern.debug	/var/log/debug

to "/etc/syslog.conf", and type

/etc/rc.d/syslogd reload

Now add "debug" to one of your options files, or the command
line, and try again.  It may, for example, say "no such user",
because it wants you to supply "andreleaomacedo@brfree.com.br"
(with the domain) as the user.  Post the "debug" output here
if nothing stands out.
