Yes, because genaliases will remove all entries from aliases and
virtual-mailman and then rebuild aliases for all lists and
virtual-mailman for only those lists whose host_name is found in
POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS.

The above is the key here. If your domains are mixed case in
add_virtualhost() and POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS, creating the list
and possibly running fix_url will produce a list with its host_name
attribute lower cased which will not match
POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS and thus will not create virtual-mailman
entries.

If however you then manually change host_name on the list admin General
Options page (or via config_list) to match the case of the domain in
POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS and run genaliases, that will create the
virtual-mailman entries.

Presumably, you did what I suggest above, i.e., change the case of the
list's host_name before running genaliases.
