Just remove any mention of +relay_from_hosts from your config entirely,
and only accept messages either for local delivery or from authenticated
senders in your rcpt acl.

In your rcpt acl, when you accept messages from authenticated senders,
set submission mode, which will set the sender address to the
authenticated id if it isn't already.
