Ah.. its "host_accept_relay" in v.3.0x and up. ALl of the net/host
accept/reject options were a mess, and Phillip collapsed them all into
a new syntax. Both network, and hostname options can now appear in the
same list.

sounds like you want:

host_accept_relay = 204.214.110.128/27 : 206.163.169.32/27 : ! *
