Yeah... by not setting RELAYCLIENT.

I'm not even really sure what you were suggesting.  You can use 
RELAYCLIENT to allow forwarding without authentication, or rely on 
authentication to control forwarding.  This seems to be much more 
complicated in your mind than you are communicating.  Could you 
enlighten us what kind of "restrictive policy" you had in mind?

Now you're talking about accepting mail to local addresses, which is 
completely unrelated to controlling relaying mail.  A policy mechanism 
exists for that already.  It's documented as "localmailfilter".
