Explanation

Sender Groups on Cisco ESA allow administrators to classify senders - including specific domains - based on reputation and map them to Mail Flow Policies that enforce blocking or other actions. You add a domain to a Sender Group (e.g., BLOCKLIST) that maps to a REJECT policy to block all mail from that domain. Anti-Virus (C) scans for malware, DLP (B) focuses on outbound data loss, and Receiving SMTP Policy (A) is not a distinct standalone service for reputation-based domain blocking - Sender Groups are the correct mechanism.
