Not possible, write a policy server to do it, I requested the same thing as
well, often spammers will put sjfdshdfhs.domain.com and in the RHSBL it only
lists the domain.com. You need to create a custom policy server to do this,
although it would be very nice if postfix allowed a switch for this as well.
