No. Think about the sequence of operations in an SMTP session. You
have to accept a connection before any commands, like AUTH, can be
sent over it. Then an EHLO command must be sent (acl_smtp_helo) and
the response parsed before the client even knows whether the server
supports AUTH.

That's the usual place, yes. It could also go in acl_smtp_mail, but
the default configuration doesn't include a MAIL ACL.
