Oh my. I've entered into a community that's running email servers for a specific purpose and it seems as if some of them don't know how / why email works. This tweet brought to you by some of them saying you needed to allow relaying for email to local recipients.
I do that pretty commonly. It's easier and more flexible to run a local postfix with a really dumb smarthost-style config, then basically ~all software that wants to send email magically works and you get queuing and other goodies.

It's part of my standard non-email server setup, often with a config to rewrite anything@<service domain or hostname> to postmaster, so that daemon-generated emails all get funneled to a known destination.

I’m confident that you have a better grasp on what you are doing and why you are doing it than some in the group I’m talking about.
