I have an internal requirement to deny access to an email address,

What do you mean by "deny access"?
Lets say user is f...@example.com ... and I'm example.net
when f...@example.com SMTP connects to our SMTP, I want the message
"secretly accepted" (for lack of a better term) but then I want our
SMTP to,
after accepting, return: 550 service unavailable in their transaction,
just as if we had set in access: f...@example.com REJECT ..to avoid
accepting then generating backscatter bounce message which is what I
can do now in 5 seconds, but I'm trying to avoid that despite
f...@example.com being a real address that someone reads.
You want to accept the message, deliver it to the recipient and still
return a 550?
I'm not sure why anybody would want this, but AFAIK, you can't do it
without modifying postfix or writing a filter.
