Using the automatic list creation, is it possible to store various
list settings in LDAP and have the automatic list creation process
retrieve the values to configure each list in a family?

Let's say for example, "testlist" does not exist as a mailing list.
A new message is sent to "testlist@list". The automatic list creation
process identifies "testlist" as new mailing list and starts the list
creation process.

During that process, the some of the settings for that mailing list
are based on the attribute values in the LDAP entry "testlist". For
example, the LDAP entry "testlist" has an attribute "send" with a value
of "open". The automatic list creation uses the value in "send" and
adds it to the "testlist" mailing list config as "send open".

In short, I need to read some of the mailing list settings from the
same LDAP entry that the list's members are obtained.

Thomas
