It looks to me like your configuration would work, although it IS a
wide-open relay.  The key here is this (all together now):

What Do the Logs Say? (tm)

The logs are your friends, so I would highly recommend you start doing
some logging.  Whether you use DJB's multilog or splogger doesn't really
matter.  Splogger would probably be easiest to set up.

Anyway, there are so many things that can stop delivery that it would be
silly to attempt any more troubleshooting without any logs.  

But you've GOT to fix that relay problem.  The first time someone
portscans your network you'll be used as a spam relay, which will get
you listed in RSS, ORBS, RBL, etc. and you will find yourself unable to
send mail to most of the internet.
