Well I gave it a try (I use an almost identical set-up to yourself),
and it did work. Which is great.

But I find this a bit puzzling -- I thought anti-relay meant that it
would only relay for e-mail to or from someone within its relaying
domains. I.e. smtp.cs.ubc.ca would only relay for e-mail to or from
addresses of the form <*@*.cs.ubc.ca>.  So they instead check that
the machine sending the e-mail is within the domain? But then how
does e-mail sent *to* people within cs.ubc.ca from outside get accepted?
