You can use the Postfix `access' map for this. You can enable an
`access' map in Postfix by setting in your `main.cf' file:
smtpd_client_restrictions = \
check_client_access hash:/usr/local/etc/postfix/access
Then, in `/usr/local/etc/postfix/access' put:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] REJECT
and run `postmap' on the `access' file:
# postmap /usr/local/etc/postfix/access
Reload Postfix and off you go :-)
There are other reject options too, which offer more fine-grained
control of the SMTP error codes and the text of the error messages
Postfix will return. See, for example:
http://www.postfix.org/access.5.html
