Hmm. Interesting.

I haven't fussed with alternative extensions much myself, so I'm not 
sure why that might not work.

That should be straightforward, if you read the qmail-users man page.  
You'll need two lines in your users/assign file. First:

     =mailing:alias:UID:GID:/var/qmail/alias/mailing:::

(replace UID and GID with the uid and gid of the qmail alias user, and 
be sure to create the /var/qmail/alias/mailing directory, and make it 
owned by the qmail alias user) Second:

     +mailing:alias:UID:GID:/var/qmail/alias/mailing:+::

(again, replace UID and GID with the uid and gid of the qmail alias 
user)

Once that's done, you'll need to do two more things: first, run 
qmail-newu to build the user/cdb file based on the contents of the 
user/assign file you just created, and second, create 
/var/qmail/alias/mailing/.qmail and 
/var/qmail/alias/mailing/.qmail-default files that forward your mail 
to wherever you want it to go, like so:

     echo "|forward user@remotehost" > /var/qmail/alias/mailing/.qmail
     echo "|forward user@remotehost" > /var/qmail/alias/mailing/.qmail-default
