It seems the OP is asking whether it is possible to verify the
*existence* of the envelope sender domain, and perhaps apply rules based
on the associated MX hostname(s) (or implicit MX 0, absent MX records).

I am guessing Exim can probably do this, and this is not part of "sender
verification", as such, but is likely just basic access control (as in
that other MTA I use).
