It should. Without that "lsearch;" it doesn't recognize that item as a
lookup item. The format of the relay.hosts.yes file is a list of hosts,
one per line.
What goes wrong? Have you tried using the -bh option to simulate a call
from a specific IP address? The output you get should tell you which
option is is triggering.
[And note that the _net_ and _host_ options do interact with each
other.]
