I'm afraid I don't understand exactly what is going on. Control of
relaying is completely separate from routing to smart hosts. Relay
control is a check that happens when a message is received by SMTP. Only
after that check has been passed and the message accepted, are the
routers etc. used.

1.92 is not unstable! It is just a bit old now, since we have passed
2.0x and are on to 2.10 as the current release. The "stable" alias is
likely to be put on 2.11 when I release it in a couple of weeks. (It
will be a tidied version of 2.10).
