I think I'm going to have to concede this point to you though on relays,
although one could argue that you don't really need to be relaying mail from
your home network through your mail server, you could just connect to your
mail server directly from your MUA. Having an additional relaying MTA in the
middle is what introduces the potential for problems but life isn't always
simple.
How, from the POV of my hosted domain mail server, is a SMTP connection
from my MTA on my home network different from a connection from my MUA on
my home network?
