Not really. Mail to [email protected] will be routed to the MX at
dsm.dsm.fordham.edu, but the envelope will still be to
[email protected].

And what changed between yesterday and today in the sendmail
configuration on dsm.dsm.fordham.edu or elsewhere in your network?

This is really a sendmail question. It is a bit puzzling because if you
are sending from dsm.dsm.fordham.edu, the MTA apparently knows how to
deliver to [email protected], but if you are sending from another
machine in your network, delivery fails.

Note however that I just sent a test message to
[email protected], and it was delivered via
dsm.dsm.fordham.edu, and Mailman replied. Thus, my best guess,
assuming it still doesn't work for you, is that for some reason, other
machines on your network don't relay mail to [email protected] via
dsm.dsm.fordham.edu.
