It's possible to achieve what I want just with one aliases file, but
the postalias tool for updating it doesn't merge records together in
any meaningful way and I don't know if it's possible using the current
implementation. The best thing I can think of is a custom tool to
merge those files.

I don't really want to add a full blown MySQL, PgSQL or LDAP daemon
for just 2-3 user accounts. It's not a primary function of the server
and adds a lot of overhead/surface area.

What would be nice if postalias could have a merge mode, which allows
multiple aliases files to be merged logically (e.g. same LHS, produce
ordered set union of RHS).
