You can use lsearch. The only tricky bit is the spaces. Note this
bit from TFM's description of lsearch in section 9.2:
In most lsearch files, keys are not required to contain colons or #
characters, or whitespace. However, if you need this feature, it is
available. If a key begins with a doublequote character, it is terminated
only by a matching quote (or end of line), and the normal escaping rules
apply to its contents (see section 6.12). An optional colon is permitted
after quoted keys (exactly as for unquoted keys). There is no special
handling of quotes for the data part of an lsearch line.
So you'll have to quote those lines in your file:
"Evite <info@???>"
"Evan Prodromou <evan@???>"
support@???
"\"Neowin.net\" <nboard@???>"
"laurent <charazac.laurent@???>"

condition - ${lookup {$h_from:} lsearch {/path/to/fromfile} {yes} {no}}
