Indeed it won't, as it is an exception list for sender_reject, not for
sender_verification.
There doesn't seem to be sender_verify_except. However, you can achieve
the effect by providing a router that verifies sender addresses. For
example:
verify_exceptions:
driver = domainlist
transport = remote_smtp
domains = some.domain.com
local_parts = root
verify_only
verify_sender
route_list = * localhost byname
self = send
This is a bit of a kludge, but it works.
