1. This will probably be easier in Exim 4.

2. You don't want to reject the sender; you want to reject the
recipient. After all, a message may have two recipients, with one
who likes the sender and one who does not.

3. If you set up receiver_verify, you can set up a special director with
verify_only set on it. You could make it conditional upon matching the
sender, and this could be done with a lookup based on the recipient. The
director, if it runs, could be a smartuser using :fail: to reject the
recipient.
