Relay host? Are you sure - if you send email to an SMTP relay host when
you are not on their network it'll say "relaying not allowed".

If you just want to forward email;

$EDITOR /etc/aliases
brown:  brown@xxxxxxxxxxx

or per user
$EDITOR ~/.forward

It gets slightly more involved if you have multiple domains to handle so
"brown" is a different "brown" in different domains, but the Postfix
documentation is pretty good on this.

But I'm slightly unclear what you mean - start with where the email
originates, and where it should be picked up from, and we'll fill in the
blanks on how it should get there.
