Available features are:

relay_hosts_only
                By default, names that are listed as RELAY in the access
                db and class {R} are domain names, not host names.
                For example, if you specify ``foo.com'', then mail to or
                from foo.com, abc.foo.com, or a.very.deep.domain.foo.com
                will all be accepted for relaying.  This feature changes
                the behaviour to lookup individual host names only.
