When you disable relaying, your mail server (SMTP) will accept messages only for some domains (yours). Mails can come from everywhere, but the recipients must be on your domains. When you use a mail server (SMTP) to relay, you send a message to a foreign domain (not handle by the SMTP server used for relay).

But now I've a 'basic' question... Mail is delivered trough smtp (port 25) in a MTA-MTA environnement, right? If this is right how can relaying be disabled? In a MTA-MTA situation mail can come from everywhere... This tought strugles me! Maybe it's my 'Monday head' but I'm 'breaking' it at this moment.
