I know nothing about Proofpoint and not much about LDAP, but every list
address has a target which is a pipe to Mailman's mail wrapper with
unique arguments depending on the address. E.g., `l...@example.com`
pipes to `mailman/mail/mailman post list` and `list-suf...@example.com`
pipes to `mailman/mail/mailman suffix list` for the various suffixes.

If you can do this programmatically, you may be able to do it similarly
to the way Exim does it (see ).

Otherwise, you will probably need 10 individual entries per list for the
list name and the nine suffixes.

[Zinski, Steve]

We're actually migrating to Proofpoint (no more sendmail). Proofpoint will use 
our LDAP server for routing mail, so I'm trying to determine the best way to 
represent our mailman aliases in LDAP.

Are your mailing lists mixed in a dedicated (sub)domain name?  Or are 
they mixed in with other non-mailing list addresses?

The former probably doesn't need much other than something akin to a 
mailertable entry.  (Is that also migrating to LDAP?)  If it's the 
former, you're going to need /something/ to cause Sendmail to recognize 
the mailing list addresses.  This probably means that you're going to 
need LDAP entries.
