I'm just beginning to look at Postfix configurations (at a very leisurely
pace I might add).

I come from a mostly Exim background, so the configuration of Postfix is
really somewhat foreign to me.

In an SMTP transaction there are certain commands that pertain to certain
areas of the SMTP message, specifically:

MAIL FROM
RCPT TO
DATA

In Exim, there is an ACL configuration block - acl_smtp_mail - that can be
used to parse the information presented in the MAIL FROM command and this
determines if the connection should be allowed to proceed.

Likewise, there is an ACL configuration block - acl_smtp_rcpt - that parses
the information from the RCPT TO command and determines how to proceed
along the connection.

And the ACL Configuration block - acl_smtp_data - that can parse the
information presented after the DATA command to determine how to proceed
with the connection.

Are there any equivalent such configuration blocks with Postfix?  Or how
would one go about processing information given from these commands?
