That is to determine whether the destination is local?

You've not shown any context, but I assume it's this:

17:31:09  8490   /considering: ${if 
match_domain{$sender_address_domain}{imager.hitronhub.home}{${sender_address_local_part}@easthope.ca}fail}}}
17:31:09  8490    /considering: 
$sender_address_domain}{imager.hitronhub.home}{${sender_address_local_part}@easthope.ca}fail}}}
17:31:09  8490    |--expanding: $sender_address_domain
17:31:09  8490    \_____result: easthope.ca
17:31:09  8490               \__(tainted)
17:31:09  8490    /considering: 
imager.hitronhub.home}{${sender_address_local_part}@easthope.ca}fail}}}
17:31:09  8490    |--expanding: imager.hitronhub.home
17:31:09  8490    \_____result: imager.hitronhub.home
17:31:09  8490 easthope.ca in "imager.hitronhub.home"? no (end of list)

- so it's checking on the sender_address_domain, not the destination.

Subsequently,
17:31:09  8491 no message retry record
17:31:09  8491 retry time not reached: checking ultimate address timeout

Why is a retry time evaluated?

To see if it's yet time to bother to try this apparently-dead host again.

  Why not try authentication?

It's not made a connection, so there's nothing to authenticate to.
