As far as I can tell the rewrite does occur before the relay test:
From the system 'vulcan',
telnet jhorne.csd.plym.ac.uk 25
...
mail from: jhorne@???
250 <jhorne@???> is syntactically correct
rcpt to: somewhere.com!user@???
550 relaying to <user@???> prohibited by administrator
As can be seen (last line) the relay test is against 'user@???'
rather than the original recipient
'somewhere.com!user@???'.
What relay configuration options are you using?
John.
