Thank you.
The reason I do use DISCARD is that REJECT simply doesn't work. I tried, if
I use REJECT, the spammer just switch to a new domain.
I noticed I got a large amount of spam from, for example *@mediablueinc.ga,
put a reject rule, then they started spamming from *@mediablueinc.com,
And so on. I then changed into DISCARD and that actually works, the spam
ceased, because the spammer won't notice they get blocked and switch to a
new domain.

Yes, im using it in main.cf. It was just that I wanted to be sure that I
didn't do something wrong so I block too much or too little.
I had a hash: list before, but now I noticed they started spamming from
certain TLD so I had to change into a pcre:.

Best regards, Sebastian Nielsen

I don't see anything "wrong".  The default for .pcre is case independence.

I use "REJECT Spam not allowed." instead of DISCARD.

You're not escaping your period (\.com).

You can combine some of these into a single rule:
/mediablueinc\.(cf|com|ga)$/    REJECT Spam not allowed (1).
/\.(top|ninja|download)$/       REJECT Spam not allowed (2).
If you number them you'll see in the log file which rule matched.


You have to use the table in main.cf.  Something like:
smtpd_recipient_restrictions =
         permit_mynetworks
         permit_sasl_authenticated
         check_sender_access pcre:/etc/postfix/my.tables/sender_access.pcre
         reject_rbl_client zen.spamhaus.org
         reject_rbl_client dnsbl.sorbs.net
