virtuals_delivery:
driver = redirect
hide data = LDAP LOOKUP WHICH RETURNS A DIRECTORY(or address)
directory_transport = address_directory

That should be able to handle addresses or directories - add a couple more
*_transports and it can handle pipe and file, too. Proabably need user
and group set, too. But that's basically it.
