But can i allow them to do relay after doing the authentication?

Quoting from the manual (7.1 User Guide in this instance- still valid for 8.x) page 157:

NO MAIL RELAY. The SMTP server will refuse to accept mail destined for other hosts, unless the user authenticates. If you use this setting, make sure that "Disable SMTP Auth Reporting" is not selected. This will force users to authenticate.
NOTE
If you are using a client such as Outlook or Eudora, you must select "my server requires authentication". The wording of this option may vary depending on the client used.




Also, the accept.txt is disabled. Can i exclude one host that i write some unix scripts to do some reporting thru emails?



If accept.txt lets IMail receive mail for another, and you want to <exclude> one host? Wouldn't you just leave it out?
But note- 'This file can be used with the Relay for Local Hosts Only and Relay for Local Users Only options."
This is not used for No Mail Relay option!
Why do you think you need this?? The Local Hosts Only option can leave you open for spammers.
