why is this only being applied to +local_domains? why not everything?
deny message = Restricted characters in address
local_parts = ^[.] : ^.*[\$@%!/|]
$, /, |, and % are all perfectly legal characters in a SMTP address
local-part without any sort of quoting.
@ and ! can appear inside a quoted-string part of an address local-part.
You can decree that all of your local domains must not contain those
characters but you can't extend that decree to other people's domains. I
work regularly with systems that have support for local-parts like
'mailbox/hierarchy/folder#username'
