No. That will reject mail from that *host*. What you want is
sender_reject_recipients = hotmail.com

Yes.

Depends on how you want to set up the file. If it is just a simple
linear list, one domain per line, then use
sender_reject_recipients = lsearch;/the/name/of/the/file

7.14 for definition of "address list"; chapter 6 for details of
different kinds of lookup. The third bullet of 7.14 may be of interest
if you want to set up large lists of local-part/domain rejections.
