Yeah, that should work for allowing people on those ips to relay, and send
mails that are forwarded to gmail. However, any mail coming from any other
ip would not get forwarded as it would be not in those ip ranges. ie. if i
sent an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] via my smtp server it would get
blocked.

I would that you use authorisation, but set 172.16.*.* as an authorised
address, and remove that mailet. That way:
- anyone can send email to local addresses
- anyone can send email to local addresses that get forwarded
- anyone on 172.16.* can use it as an smtp relay without any authorisation
- anyone outside that ip range trying to relay mail will be forced to
authorise themselves.
