If you are using Postfix, see the bug at <https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1459236>. I.e., in the latest 2.1.21rc2 release, Postfix/Mailman integration will create these virtual mappings. You may need to run bin/genaliases after upgrade. The NEWS file says - Mailman-Postfix integration will now add mailman@domain entries in data/virtual-mailman for each domain in POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS which is a host_name of a list. This is so the addresses which are exposed on admin and listinfo overview pages of virtual domains will be deliverable. (LP: #1459236) For other MTAs or Postfix without Mailman-Postfix integration, you're on your own for virtual mappings anyway. The need should probably be documented, but where? The two places that come to mind are in Defaults.py in the "Virtual domains" section or in the FAQ.
