If your posixGroup objects have a multi-valued member attribute that is a
sequence of strings representing login names, you must use /etc/aliases
or .forward files to handle mail for any user accounts that require remote
delivery.
If the posixGroup lists a sequence of member DNs, you can express
queries that directly fetch the primary mail address of the underlying
user. I am guessing the memberDN scenario is not what you've got in your
schema.
