access actions apply to a message, not to a recipient. so if you use
DISCARD and a message is sent to multiple recipients, the message is
discarded. with transport_maps, only the copy to the "unwanted" user is
discarded.

also, access actions only apply to mail received via smtpd. I guess this
is your case though.
