Most likely, yes. Another option is to set the local_domains option to
include 'localhost' as well as the name you give your machine.
relay_domains is for hosts that it thinks aren't local. If
local_domains is not set at all it takes on the value of
qualify_recipient which may not be 'localhost' in all cases. If
local_domains is set to empty then no host is considered local.
