Could you be a little bit more verbose, about what you consider
"relaying"? (Mail sent from machine 0 to address x should be accepted,
mail sent from machine 1 to address y should be rejected, etc.)
If your szenario is this one
server.example.com is MX for example.com
server.example.com does not act as smarthost or secondary MX
users on server.example.com can configure forwarding via .forward
then the answer to your question is: Keep relay domains blank, list
example.com in local_domains. Things already work as expected.
