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.
