You can't, because it is an individual recipient address that determines
this, and a message may contain more than one such address.
"relay" = from some other machine & address not in local domain
"incoming relay" = "relay" & address in relay_domains
"outgoing relay" = "relay" & not "incoming relay"

"not in local domain" => address will be processed by routers.
Therefore, you should be able to put some kind of complicated condition
on a router which does what you want.
${if eq {$sender_host_address}{} tests for message from the local host
If your relay domains are in a file, you can test $domain for being in
that list to check for incoming vs outgoing.
