[comp.mail.sendmail] Sendmail Alias Predigester

scs@itivax.iti.org (Steve C. Simmons) (07/12/89)

We're looking for a sendmail alias predigester.  We have huge
lists of aliases for mail groups that point to other aliases
that point to . . . well, you get the idea.  What I'm looking
for is a processor that will take a tree of aliases like

  all: engineering,support,financial
  engineering: test,development
  test:	june,ray,bob,mary
  developement: mike,jeff,mary

and rework it so that engineering becomes 'june,ray,bob,mary,mike,jeff',
all becomes the combination of its various groups, etc.  It should
pre-supress duplicates and resolve to the bottom level, ensuring the
minimun number of probes into the db.  So before I reinvent the
wheel...anybody already done this?
