$domain expands to the domainpart of the CURRENT handled address,
without this condition, the lookup would return:

domain1.tld
domain2.tld
domain3.tld

as a SINGLE string, and no would match this string (unless you have just
a single domain in your database).

Mostly it's better to use the command-style lookup in lists, like

domainlist local_domains = mysql;select 1 from domains where \
                     type='local' and domain='$domain'


this means "If the lookup returns something, it's ok", with your list,
it would first expand everything, replace the expansion-string with the
selected domain, and do a string-comparsion against it.
