There's also the table lookup feature that can let you lookup a lot of IP
addresses and get back 'yes' or 'no' that you can then test.

Hi Nick,
I don't know if the array approach would work (I guess not, but you can
try). I would assume that "contains" would be faster than the regex
approach, even with more IPs, because your regex would also be complicated.
If you have a really long list of IPs, then it might be worth parsing the
IP from the message with mmnormalize, and then doing exact matches with a
list of IPs. This in turn could be a condition with multiple ORs or you
could put the list of IPs in an array and use foreach.
I hope this helps.
Best regards,
Radu

I have multiple incoming messages that I want to filter on the contents of
the message containing an IP address (not a fromhost-ip, etc.)
As a result this forces me to have to search the actual $msg itself using
either regex or contains...
with that being said, is it more efficient for me to re_match a multitude
of IP addresses OR'ing them together, or would the following actually work?
if ($msg contains ["IP1","IP2","IP3"....]) then stop
