First, this is the king of stuff you should setup at SMTP level to
reject the message before it enter the server.

No, cyrus cannot send such a message.

When a system accept an email via SMTP or LMTP protocol,
this is its responsibility to warn the sender if it cannot
handle it further!
If it choose to reject it, this is then the responsibility of the
system that connected to it. Then look your SMTP documentation.

Regards.
