I currently only have one family, but it just seems to make sense to
have the one transport for familyqueue. You would need an
entry in the transport_regexp file for each family still, though. For
example:
/^.*+myrole\@some\.domain\.com$/ sympafamily:

It just seems more elegant and can keep your master.cf from growing
large if you do have many list families. I'll probably only have two
or three list families.

This did work out well for me in testing yesterday.
