Use the "condition" option to test $sender_address_domain and $domain.

Sender addresses can be forged. You might also want to test where the
message came from (a local host, for example).

You might want to investigate the use of batching with SpamAssissin.
(No, I can't help more - I haven't used SA myself, and don't even know

of the message with many recipients.
