That only works if you want to restrict posting to list members;
if he actually wants anyone within his company to be able to post
to these internal lists he'll need to a custom director in the
exim file. I would suggest:

    Move the restricted aliases out of your main aliases
    file and into a new file.  (E.g., /etc/mail/restricted)


    Copy the system_aliases director and call the new one
    something like restricted_aliases.


    Change the file option to point to the new aliases file.
    (file = /etc/mail/restricted)


    Add a condition option that tests the various headers or
    other variables with source info and fails if they aren't
    all from within the company.
