Not *a risk*, rather an inevitable, and difficult to recover from exploit.

DO NOT base relay access on envelope sender address information, it is
trivially forged.

        Upthread:

            I need a way to implement
            "check_sender_access_AND_check_recipient_access"

Your problem is almost certainly best solved by using each of the
multiple restriction lists to check each of the required conditions.

        cidr = cidr:${config_directory}/
        indexed = ${default_database_type}:${config_directory}/

        smtpd_client_restrictions =
            check_client_access ${cidr}allowed-clients,
            check_client_access static:discard

        smtpd_sender_restrictions =
            check_sender_access ${indexed}allowed-senders,
            check_client_access static:discard

        # The default is likely fine:
        smtpd_recipient_restrictions =
            check_recipient_access ${indexed}allowed-recipients,
            check_client_access static:discard,
                #
                # At least one reject by default rule is required in
                # smtpd_recipient_restrictions, defeat the logic by
                # listing permit, then reject. In reality permit = discard.
                #
            permit, reject

With this all mail is discarded unless all the conditions below are met:

    - From an allowed SMTP client (IP address CIDR table)
    - From an allowed envelope sender (indexed via postmap lookup table)
    - To an allowed envelope recipient (indexed via postmap lookup table)
