Err, not relay_hosts. sorry. I meant relay_domains.

Ok, I found one problem. For some strange reason (probably a lack of sleep
at the time), I had mynetworks setup wrong. i deleted it, let it use the
defaults, deleted relay_domains, and it stopped rejecting outgoing mail. So
score there!

However, it still loops mail between the relayhost and itself for incoming
mail, without relay_domains or mydestination having the $mydomain etc set.
Why would it do that then?
