The order of your accept / deny conditions is important, as they are
used top to bottom.

Here you accept anything from relay_from_hosts and as the next line deny
everything else. The two following lines won't do anything as no message
gets ever checked against these, they have been denied by then.

Next thing, above that, you've got lines checking against local_domains
and relay_to_domains. Are these entirely different domains? If not, I
could imagine situations where these lines kick in before reaching the
end of the ACL list as well.
