I think you could place the IP addresses of the (outgoing) mail servers
for which you relay mail in mynetworks to solve the 'mynetworks' problem.

For the example.com domain you relay to host mail.example.com.
The users at example.com send mail out through host smtp.example.com.
Place the IP address of smtp.example.com in mynetworks. That way if
someone at example.com creates an email to example.org (also one of
your domains), it will not be rejected. If someone from a different
network claims to be sending from example.com, they will be rejected.
Once again, this breaks forwarding (which probably cannot be avoided
no matter which method you use) and requires that people claiming to
be from one of your domains actually uses servers listed in mynetworks
for their outgoing mail.
