Why is this column formula returning 'External' when the email obviously does contain 'iris' ?
The contacts columns is set to allow multiples

It seems to be that it can't interrogate contact lists very well

CONTAINS does not work well with contact lists. You can use FIND instead and it should work. Here is an example you can try:
=IF(FIND("iris", [Assigned To]@row) > 0, "iris", "External")
