The order of things in the RCPT ACL is important - tests happen in the
order they appear in the config, and as soon as a successful 'accept',
'deny' (etc) is reached, processing stops.
You've probably got something equivalent to 'accept authenticated = *'
ahead of the 'require verify = sender', so the 'require' is never reached
if the 'accept' succeeds.
