The above line is wrong. Normally you shouldn't need to specify VIRTUAL_MAILMAN_LOCAL_DOMAIN at all, but if it is specified, it should be something like 'localhost' or 'some.other.postfix.local.domain'. It must not be the list domain because if it is it will result in virtual-mailman mappings like [email protected] [email protected] which tell Postfix to map the virtual domain address [email protected] to the address [email protected] which is the same address and doesn't tell Postfix what real address to actually deliver to.
