Subject: converting aliases to :include: files

Does anyone have a tool that will take a sendmail aliases file, find all
the lists that have more than N addresses, and move the contents out to a
:include: file?  We've been having some problems which we think may be due
to frequent rebuilding of the aliases database; moving most lists out to
external files would obviate most database rebuilds.  Also, some automated
alias management programs (e.g. majordomo) will only operate on :include:
files.  We have hundreds of lists that are contained directly in the
aliases file, so an automated conversion tool would be nice.
