It is, more or less:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(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.
22-Apr-04: Implemented for domains, addresses, and local parts. Hosts are
too messy!
The only sensible approach seems to be to allow IP address arguments only.
Anything else should be diagnosed as an error. However, if a name appears in
the list, a PTR lookup should be done. This may require a lot of refactoring
in the code, because of the current assumption that were are (almost) always
dealing with THE sending host.
