Yes - here's what I have:

deny    message   = REJECTED - Local Recipient Verify Failed
    domains = +local_domains
    !verify   = recipient


This is all very confusing - and thanks for the help. This is what's
confusing me. What I want to an ACL that will do the same thing as the
"exim -bv" test does. That way I can reject bad addresses at ACL time
and not spam scan email that is undeliverable.

exim -bt z@???
Address rewritten as: z@???
z@???
router = spamcheck, transport = spamcheck

exim -bv z@???
Address rewritten as: z@???
z@??? failed to verify:
Unrouteable address
