In this case, you don't want "lsearch;", you just want to specify the
file path itself, so that the matching is "one per line".  lsearch is a
way, loosely speaking, of looking for "key: value" lines by key and
grabbing the value for use.

It should be:
  deny hosts = /etc/exim4/senderhosts.blacklist

And don't worry about "too easy".  If people complain about "too easy",
I can cough at them and ask for people to help maintain the FAQ.  :-D
