If you add something like

condition = "${if eq {${domain:$sender_address}}{your.domain}\
{${lookup{${local_part:$sender_address}} lsearch {/some/file}{$value}{0}}}{1}}"

to your lookuphost router, then bingo!, all local users who are not in the
file are denied, and all those who are in the file may or may not be
denied, depending on the contents of the file. Of course you can make
the default the other way. I have not tested the above. It may be buggy.

The disadvantage of this is that the error message will be "unknown mail
domain". I guess you could add a subsequent domainlist router, with the
same test, but inverted (so it acts only for your denied users) to route
failing messages to an autoreply transport instead, and use this to send
an explanatory reply.

Naturally this doesn't stop your users from sending external mail by
direct telnetting, if you permit Telnet.
