Both evaluate the RCPT TO address. Both really work in the same way, but they serve a very different purpose. - relay restrictions should never 'permit' exceptions for client, helo, sender, or recipient, because that can make your system an open ralay. - recipient restrictions can safely have 'permit' exceptions for client, helo, sender, or recipient, because the relay restrictions protect the system from becoming an open relay.
