If I understand you correctly, you just want to be able to allow specific IP
Addresses to relay mail. I believe all you have to do it allow the subnet
or class C subnet that the web server is on to relay mail. Since it's not a
local *Imail* domain, you just go to SMTP Security and change it to allow
*only* specified networks to relay mail. Be sure to include all the subnets
for you local networks and the external networks you wish to allow to relay
smtp.
Someone correct me if I'm off here.
