In addition to what Greg said, there are lots of examples of legitimate
(and desirable) relaying, such as firewall MTAs (which do both outgoing
and incoming relaying), fallback MXs, store-and-forward relays for
intermitently-connected hosts, virtual domains that contain only
forwarding aliases, etc.

You might also look at RFC 1711.
