The problem with the lookups is something I just learned myself -
lookup pgsql returns a list, which never matches a single item (as is -
you could rewrite your query to only return one item, e.g add AND
localpart = $localpart). Using pgsql; returns true if anything is
returned, so it returns true for all localparts.

You can do one of two things, essentially - have your query return only
one row, or use sg to transform the \n seperated fields into : seperated
fields. Using pgsql; is not what you want though.
