I've done this before and its very tricky to get it right. The first step for you is to make sure that you can send and receive mail - no matter how round-about your mail has to travel to end up on your server. Sending mail out is not problem, its getting it back in that can be tough.
I setup Postfix to send out my mail as though I were the ISP, so that the email was from the proper domain and responses to the email eventually ended up on my server. Then I setup Mailman to send out using that domain as its default. If you think that your mail is making it to the server, then look at the Maillog and make sure that it came back in. If that part worked, then look in the mailman logs and see if the message was handed off to Mailman and if it then sent the message. Basically look at your logs and figure out what is going on.
