Qmail SMTP-behaviour

Hi,

I've installed qmail on my router. Is there a way that you know of that
I can configure qmail to accept and relay ALL mail from the internal
interface, and to accept ONLY mail for my domain on the external interface?

I know both are possible, but are they possible at the same time?
I don't want to be a spam-hole.
Now I have an own written proxy on the external interface that filters
the mail. Everything for my domain goes to qmail, the rest (SPAM) goes
to /dev/null

Thanks,

Lode

Here's my configuration for tcpserver and qmail :

root@calaquendi.org 12:52:14$ cat tcp
#/etc/tcpserver/smtp.rules
#
# No Qmail-Scanner at all for mail from 127.0.0.1
127.:allow,RELAYCLIENT="",RBLSMTPD="",QMAILQUEUE="/var/qmail/bin/qmail-queue"
192.:allow,RELAYCLIENT="",RBLSMTPD="",QMAILQUEUE="/var/qmail/bin/qmail-queue"
# Use Qmail-Scanner with SpamAssassin on any mail from the rest of the world
:allow,QMAILQUEUE="/var/qmail/bin/qmail-scanner-queue.pl"

Something like that should work...

Qmail decides which domains to accept mail for based on what
you've configured in /var/qmail/control/ Relaying on the other hand is
controlled via the /etc/tcp.smtp so yes you can do both.

I'd also some more specific rules than the above such as 192.168. instead
of just 192.
