The point of this is to say, "If some dude points DNS at your server
and/or configures their mail server to send mail to yours, it's not
going to relay mail for them. You have to actually configure the domains
to be relayed."
Since you're planning to configure the domain you should be fine. Also
less overthinking and more testing solves most of this stuff quicker.
