smtpd_recipient_restrictions =
    permit_mynetworks,
    reject_non_fqdn_sender,
    reject_non_fqdn_recipient,
    reject_unknown_sender_domain,
    reject_unknown_recipient_domain,
    reject_unauth_destination,

Notice changed position of permit_mynetworks. THis allows user at host
for internal mail and raises the bar for mail to/from outside
mynetworks.
