In short - it doesn't ;)
In long - no server does but most have a system where everything in a
certain IP range is considered local and they will relay this "local" mail
to outside mail. Other servers may relay based on usernames in "from"
fields of mail etc (ie match from field against list of usernames).
Cheers,
Pete
