In this case, no, because the mail was submitted via sendmail(1) by
UID 552. Perhaps authorized_submit_users is the best solution to the
real-world problem here. Note that the OP did not describe that, so
we're limited to guessing.

A couple more comments to augment what Ralf said: first, "." is a
PCRE/regexp metacharacter, as "@" is in PCRE. Those should be
escaped.

Second, I am not sure what happens with "REJECT" for sendmail
submission; it seems to be mostly applicable in smtpd(8) context.
