Create a NAMES file of the info and setup mail to search that names
file. You then only need one include:
   include mylist

:nick.mylist :list.mylist1 mylist2 mylist3 ...
:nick.mylist1 :list a at b c at d
...
:nick. :userid.a :node.b :name.a@b's name
...

I've done this myself in the past and can attest to it working
(though it is SLOW for long lists, as NAMEFIND is SLOW).
