Nothing in my response was intended as hostile, I apologize if it came across this way.

However, the documentation in question specifically references Postfix 2.4, and then uses an example using the old syntax. From <http://www.postfix.org/LDAP_README.html#example_group>:

Our final use case is the same as the third, but this time uses new features in Postfix 2.4. We now are able to use just one LDAP table and no longer need to assume that forwarded groups are never nested inside expanded groups.

       fancy.cf:
           ...
           search_base = dc=example, dc=com
           query_filter = mail=%s
           result_attribute = memberaddr
           special_result_attribute = memberdn
           terminal_result_attribute = maildrop
           leaf_result_attribute = mail
       $ postmap -q au...@example.com ldap:fancy.cf
       au...@mailhub.example.com
       $ postmap -q cu...@example.com ldap:fancy.cf
       cu...@example.com
       $ postmap -q agr...@example.com ldap:fancy.cf

au...@mailhub.example.com,bu...@mailhub.example.com,au...@example.org,bu...@example.org
       $ postmap -q bgr...@example.com ldap:fancy.cf
       bgr...@mlm.example.com



Note the above deprecated postmap -q syntax.
