In the default config, relay_domains and local_domains are tested as
destination domains. So adding the domain of the workstation sending
the mail isn't going to do very much. There's a hostlist called
relay_from_hosts that would be a better place to put the hostname or
IP of the workstation if you want to allow relay access from there.
If you don't have a default config, you'll need to post what you do have.
