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).
