sender_reject_except
Type: address-list
Section 7.14 defines the form of an address list. (Yes, it can include
external lists in various forms.)

If the address is not directable at your domain, it will get refused as
"unknown user" in the normal way. Or do you mean mail *from* specific

sender_reject_recipients = ^{?mb\.\w{3}\.98}?@my\.domain$
