Yes. That's because in the other cases, you can explicitly supply the
key for the search. The only reason for the existence of net-lsearch is
that, for host lists, the parameter is implicit (the host). Use lsearch
to use the host name, net-lsearch to use the host IP. If you are writing
a ${lookup, you can specify whatever key you want.

Already on the Wish List:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(73) 17-Jul-02 M Match a list from within a condition

e.g.  ${if matchdomain {$domain}{+domainlist} ...
      ${if matchhost {$sender_host_address}{1.2.3.4/10:2.3.4.5/16}...


Thought needed about how to handle host names. This may be too messy to specify
cleanly.
