No, because $1 has no value in that ACL statement. What senders are you
trying to test for? If you just have
accept authenticated = *
verify = sender
it will accept if (a) the connection is authenticated AND (b) the sender
address verifies successfully. A "senders" line adds another AND
condition, this time checking for specific senders (by an explicit list,
or lookup, etc.) A "sender_domains" line adds a condition that tests the
sender address domain, so if you wanted to restrict this to your local
domain, you should use
accept authenticated = *
sender_domains = your.local.domain
verify = sender

When the next statement starts (i.e. a line beginning "accept", "deny",
etc.) or the end of the ACLs (a line beginning "begin", or the end of
the file).
