Hi Rory,

Yes, you can do that, but I would actually split the test into two for
clarity in logging.


deny message       = REJECTED - rDNS Verify Failed
        log_message = rDNS fail for $sender_host_address
# check only port 25, not users submitting on port 587
        condition       = ${if eq{$interface_port}{25}}
        !verify            = reverse_host_lookup



I would do the sender verification check separately:

deny    message      = REJECTED - Sender Verify Failed
          log_message = REJECTED - Sender Verify Failed for $sender_address
          !verify            = sender/callout=2m,defer_ok,
          !condition      =  ${if eq{$sender_verify_failure}{}}


YMMV.
