I am wondering how you could have gotten to a level of familiarity
without knowing about AUTH:
http://www.postfix.org/SASL_README.html
Mail clients should be set to authenticate, unless, like an ISP, you
choose to allow relaying from networks under your control. See:
http://www.postfix.org/BASIC_CONFIGURATION_README.html
http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#mynetworks

Pick which class you want any specific domain to be in. List it in the
definition for that class. No overlaps. See:
