The directive for "from local" in the smtpd.conf(5) man page states:

  "The rule matches only locally originating connections."

But what exactly does "locally originating" mean?

My network consists of two subnets: 10.0.9.0/24 and 10.0.10.0/24. The OpenSMTPD server is at 10.0.9.20. The email client is at 10.0.10.24. The mail server will relay mail to the Internet for the client with the following single rule:

  accept from local for any relay

Should the mail server be relaying mail for this client? Is the client, which is on a different subnet than the mail server, considered "local"?
