that is because it is just a name, or a container of information. It does
nothing my itself to change the behaviour of the system unless you use it
in a rule.

domainlist ARFFARFF = a.b.c.0/24

would define a domainlist called ARFFARFF of the a.b.c.0/24 IP range.
but again, would not do anything with it unless you used ARFFARFF
somewhere in a rule.

If that is all you have done, it does nothing.

You have to then use the defined domainlist in a rule to use it.

No

No

Since I don't act as an secondary MX for other domains, I don't have any
listed, but it is in my configuration.

# If this is an MX site for another domain
domainlist relay_to_domains =

In the recipient acl you could then have

        # Accept if the domain is local.  If not Say it is Unknown User
        accept  domains       = +local_domains
                endpass
                message       = Unknown user
                verify        = recipient



        # Opps it is not a local user... Is it a relay_to_domain ?
        accept  domains       = +relay_to_domains
                endpass
                message       = Unroutable address
                verify        = recipient



Note that the sample configuration has this already in it almost exactly
the same way. You should look at it too.
