recent postfix snapshot has check_sender_mx_access for
smtpd_*_restrictions.

for example:

smtpd_sender_restrictions =
  ...
  check_sender_mx_access = hash:/etc/postfix/mx_access

mx_access:
null.domain.com reject not accepted

dns:
www.domain.com. IN A 0 null.domain.com.

But, if I understand the problem you're trying to solve, you
could simply reject the sender using 'old' mechanism. e.g
using check_sender_access or if domain.com is suppose to be
delivered locally, then don't put www.domain.com into
$mydestinations or $virtual_alias_domains or $virtual_mailbox_domain.
