Is it better to add restrictions/tests to the appropriate section or is it better to place then all under one, for example everything to do with sender (check_sender_access...) with smtpd_sender_restrictions. Similar setup for all the other sections.

I only ask because in reading various how-to, etc., I find there seems to be two schools of thought 1) lump just about everything under one restriction "class" (usually smtpd_recipient_...).
    2) place the test with the appropriate class.
I understand that with "smtpd_delay_reject=yes" there isn't much difference, does breaking them up have any detrimental effects?

========

Just to make sure I am think correctly

client: => ? not quite sure, but it seems to be validation of the physical connection, (ip, hostname etc, connecting MTA)

etrn: => ?

helo: => MTA to MTA hand shake

To: => recipient

relay: => control over what if any relaying of mail is allowed

From: => sender

data: => control how the data, /the email/, is handled
