I think this affects all recipients of the message, so the OP probably wants to
use transport_maps to limit holding/queuing only for a particular sent of
recipients.

connects to your smtpd. It is common practice
for servers that support ESMTP to indicate this in their banner; no harm in
leaving it there. Although Postfix by default sends EHLO even if ESMTP does
not appear in the banner, some other MTAs might need to see ESMTP to know
your server supports it

What is 'example.com' really? The way I understand it,
check_sender_mx_access checks whether the MX host(s) for the MAIL FROM
address match whatever you may have in your access table. Just because
one user is sending to another in the same domain, that does not mean
the domain itself should have an MX record that points to loopback.
