Make sure you local MTA correctly identifies the local user as bogus. Postfix by default does not correctly identify a user as being missing and instead sends a lesser error indicating that the user is just temporarily unavailable.
Modify your MTA to report the bogus user correctly, then Mailman will not loop on that error. A check is being added to the next version so this will not be a problem in the future (though it is not Mailman's error).
