As I could see his side ok regarding 
 * relaying foreign domains: will be denied
 * accepting non existent local addresses: responds with user unknown
 * handling of @... or local domain as sender: relaying denied

Above milter-greylist message has nothing to do with relaying. A
dicision in this regard will be made by Sendmail.
To see what happened you should look for sendmail log entries. If you
find such a transfer, gather all lines with the same queue-id ...
As already mentioned, this maybe a case for a sendmail forum.

Anyway, provide as much information as possible if expect to get 
a helpful answer. ;)
