Consider the following SMTP transaction:

MAIL FROM:<me@???>
RCPT TO:<you@picky_domain>
RCPT TO:<someone@???>

This is why the domains condition isn't valid in the DATA acl. There's
a lot of notes out there about how to handle this, but basically, you'll
want to implement some sort of profile setup and only handle one profile
type at a time. Then you can use the profile condition in the DATA acl.

There are some of these geared towards spamassassin that should be easy
enough to adapt for what you want.

Cheers,
