Hi,

An Email Relay uses an email server to send emails that originated elsewhere. System administrators can set up Email Relay by entering Email Relays into the Quick Find search box, and selecting Email Relays.

Activating email relaying will not remove the limits on mass email.

The salesforce.com email servers still process the email and thus the bulk load is still on SFDC side. Once processed the email is then passed (or relayed) to your email server before sending it.
These limits are enforced so that the load does not become too large for SFDC servers to handle and cause performance issues for other customers.

For your reference, you can check the below article,

I hope you find the above information is helpful. If it does, please mark as Best Answer to help others too.

Thanks.
