If your secondary servers don't deliver the mail (eg because the delivery
directory is on the primary which is probably down when the secondaries
get mail) you could try:

local_domains =
relay_domains =
relay_domains_include_local_mx

As Phil said, this works on domain not net.

I've only just discovered this, so if anyone sees problems with this
please sing out.
