In order for virtual-mailman to be created/updated, you must have a list of virtual domains in mm_cfg.py like: POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS = ['domain2', 'domain3'] (see <http://www.list.org/mailman-install/postfix-virtual.html> for what actually goes in this list - it could be just one domain or two as above or more), AND you must have one or more Mailman lists with host_name equal to one of the domains in POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS. Apparently you don't have both of these conditions. >Also, I assume I create a list on the virtual domain >using newlist [EMAIL PROTECTED] ? Yes, but contrary to intuition, domain2 in this case must be the URL host of the list, not the email host unless they are the same. There are also options in later versions of newlist to specify this less counter-intuitively.
