Yes. They are available (in the RCPT ACL. Not in the DATA ACL).

If two users have the same preferences then it's safe
to accept RCPT TO's for those two users for a single
mail message, and call spamc once (at DATA time).
Then you can reject the item if it fails the tests
(rather than sending a bounce to a probably faked
MAIL FROM address).

On the other hand, if these two users want different
spamc preferences, you can't do that.

That's what I mean by "imcompatible".
