[Mimedefang] Limiting delivery by *nix group

[Jeff Rife]

I posted this to the sendmail newsgroup and got an answer that uses 
sendmail rulesets.  Since I don't understand these as well as I 
understand Perl (since I'm a Perl beginner, that tells you how little I 
can deal with sendmail rules), I'd like a way to do this from within 
MIMEDefang.

The need arose because our mail server gets its user list from Active 
Directory, but not every one of the users listed there should get e-
mail (a good example is all the "machine" users).  I can easily put all 
the real e-mail users into a AD group which then maps to a *nix group.

So, all I need to do is check to see whether the user is in a 
particular group and, if not, return a "550 User unknown" status.

How would I do this from within MIMEDefang?

Thanks.
