There is a website, which sending email use smtp authentication only, can not 
use anonymous.
Postfix is a mail gateway, and I don't want install a smtp authentication 
backend.

Will permit_mynetworks parameter ignore smtp authentication, and accept the 
email?

Can you provide more details on what you are trying to achieve?
 
Generally speaking, you can use permit_mynetworks in your smtpd
restrictions to exempt local clients from SMTP authentication. However,
if mail submission is bound to a external (Internet-facing) network
interface on which untrusted clients can connect, you definitely do not
want to allow unauthenticated submission, because that would turn your
mail server into an open relay.
