I would like to confirm a few things:

1. AFAIK, it won't be an open relay for anyone but only for authenticated STMP users. This behaviour is the default one and nothing needs to be configured.

Yep.

And just in case someone trips into that one, the SMTP authentication must NOT be required or all the mails for the local domain will be bounced. Silly me, I forgot about that one.

3. I've heard about greylisting where the default answer is to say "come back later". Initial testing suggests that courier is handling that well when connecting to a remote server. However, can it be configured to behave like this when receiving SMTP connections?

You can get third-party software to do that. Once such solution is pythonfilter, which I wrote: http://phantom.dragonsdawn.net/~gordon/courier-pythonfilter/

Fantastic. I've followed the instructions and I think it is installed. How do I check that it actually is running?

Many thanks for your help. Olivier
