This makes you an open relay.
You are allowing any host to relay through you *without* authentication
(unless theres an ACL before that which you have not told us about which
restricts things down).

I think what you meant to have was
hostlist auth_relay_hosts = *
hostlist relay_hosts = 192.168.0.0/24 # or other description of your
# net that can relay
----
# initial acl checks
...
# allow specific hosts to relay without auth
accept hosts = +relay_hosts
# allow authenticated hosts from listed networks to relay
accept hosts = +auth_relay_hosts
endpass
message = Athentication required
authenticated = *
I have not looked very carefully at the authenticator, but I see no fail
section in there. Check what happens if someone presents you with an
unknown username and a empty password.
