Ah, in that case you could add
deny domains = mymsviews.com (add more domains if relevant)
message = $domain does not accept mail
early in the ACL, to give an explicit message, even to local users. But it's
not necessary; if you remove that superfluous "require verify = recipient",
Exim will find that it doesn't know the domain locally and that the sender
isn't authorized to relay (unless it is), and give an appropriate error
message.

If you add
self = fail
then Exim will return a permanent error instead of a temporary one. Normally
you don't want that, because "lowest numbered MX record points to
local host" is usually a configuration error, which you'd want to spot and fix
before mail bounces.
