This problem can be broken down into two parts:

1. Does anyone have a working Postfix config that uses aliases?

2. Does anyone know how to replace "alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases" with
"alias_maps = ldap:ldap_aliases"?

Once you have step 1 working, add appropriate "ldap_aliases_... = ..."
settings to main.cf and test the map with:

        postmap -q alias ldap:ldap_aliases

When the map returns sensible answers proceed to step 2.

If the problem is in LDAP schema design, the issue is often much broader
than Postfix, since LDAP is often used by multiple applications, Postfix
is very flexible in regard to the LDAP schema you decide what queries to
make and which attributes to return. Search the list archives for pointers
to "standard" schemas.
