The term "Relay" refers to outgoing E-mail sent through a mailserver.ok, but it's being sent through my SMTP - and it's not a valid account? see my point, it's relaying the message and it shouldn't be.
In your case, the E-mail is addressed to an account on your mailserver, so it is not being relayed. If it was addressed to another mailserver, that would be relaying, and could potentially be a security problem.
What you are talking about is detecting incoming spam. That's a huge subject -- searching the archives will provide a lot of information.
