local_parts = the local part of "some address"
domains = abc.com

Wasn't that easy?

Or even

condition = ${if eq {$local_part@$domain}{some address}{yes}{no}}

Section 7.11 describes how lists are constructed.
Section 7.12 describes domain lists (for "domains").
The description of the local_parts option tells you how that list works.
