i'm not sure what the problem is, but i have a setup like this:
my machine my.domain.com is allowed to relay to my friends machine
friend.domain.com
all i did to make this work was:
1: i added a mx record for my mahine under his host as priority 20
2: i added his hostname to my rcpthosts file.
now if his server is down, i queue his mails and my server happily
accepts mails for his box....
pretty straightforward, but i might not understand what it is you
want...
