Something like this, untested:

condition = ${lookup pgsql{\
    SELECT COUNT(*) FROM blacklist WHERE entry >>= '${sender_host_address}' LIMIT 1
    } {$value}{no}}


The >>= operator is PostgreSQL for "contains or equals"; you don't care
how many matches there are, so just finding one is enough (LIMIT 1), and
you don't care about any values, you just want to know if it's present.
So the COUNT(*) should return 0 or 1 (because of the LIMIT 1).

At which point, you already have a value which condition will interpret.
The {no} fallback is just paranoia.

Normally you'd use ${quote_pgsql:...} for the inserted variable, but
$sender_host_address is an IPv4 or IPv6 address, so should be safe.

Does that help?
