depends on how you have setup qmail.

you can specify a group of hosts in /etc/hosts.allow and do not have to
list each single machine.

/etc/hosts.allow has nothing to do with qmail relaying. It's probably a
good idea not to list any host without knowing why.

it is not recommended to use inet.d with qmail. You should use tcpserver
instead.

this is not for inet.d but for tcpserver. If you switch to tcpserver you
should:
a) create an /etc/tcp.smtp (or similar) and
b) build the /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb from this file

Good luck
