Yeah, that looks good.

What is the exact error message in /var/log/messages on your server when 
you try to relay from another box?

That will tell us what to look for.

permit_sasl_authenticated,reject_non_fqdn_sender,reject_non_fqdn_recipient,reject_unknown_sender_domain,reject_unknown_recipient_domain,permit_mynetworks,reject_unauth_destination,reject_unauth_pipelining,reject_invalid_hostname,reject_non_fqdn_hostname,check_sender_access 
hash:/etc/postfix/access,permit

I'd like to see the maillog entry first that happens on error. It could 
as well be the "reject_unknown_sender_domain" entries. If the sending 
servers don't have DNS records that could lead to a block.
