I don't know if this would be enough for you but we also use (I am not 
the one who coded all this):
define(`ALIAS_FILE', `/etc/aliases,ldap:-v mail -k 
(udesRfc822MailAlias=%0)')dnl
define(`confLDAP_DEFAULT_SPEC', `-h "ldap2.usherbrooke.ca 
ldap1.usherbrooke.ca" -d uid=XXX,ou=abc,dc=usherbrooke,dc=ca -P 
/etc/smtp-ldap.pwd -b dc=usherbrooke,dc=ca -M simple -s sub')dnl
LDAPROUTE_DOMAIN(`usherbrooke.ca')dnl
