There's no "One True Way".

Here's one possible:

deny condition = ${if isip{${sg{$sender_helo_name} {\N^[[](.*)]$\N} {$1}}}}

No. Please ready the docs on $sender_host_name:

That could be associated with several ACLs; they act on SMTP commands
received, but that error is a TLS-level thing (a layer down in the
protocol stack).

You need to re-evaluate.
