There is no such genaliases option, but you could put the following 3
lines in a file named make_alias.py in Mailman's bin/ directory

from Mailman.MTA.Postfix import create
def make_alias(mlist):
    create(mlist)

and then the command

bin/withlist -r make_alias LISTNAME

will create the aliases for LISTNAME.
