A few years back, I did that with iPlanet LDAP, just ran a batch job out
of cron to do an ldap query to LDIF, massage that to a list of e-mail
addresses, compare to list of subscribers, then add or remove
addresses. Surely, there is a more elegant way to do it, also not
hardly instantaneous. You might be able to use Penrose or ApacheDS to
make some glue as an LDAP front end into AD if needed.
