I discovered recently that there is a local user and a mailman list with
the same user@. The mail goes to the list and not the user. What is the
trick to make Postfix handle these separately?

Lets say the domain is somewhere.com and the list is list.somewhere.com.

If you have [email protected] (local user) and [email protected] with the list-member [email protected], that sounds like correct behavior.

OTOH do you have [email protected] as a personal mailbox and [email protected] as the name of a mailman list? That's a bad idea, in general. Can you even route around that? If they're effectively both local users in the same email domain, I'm not sure how it can work, but I'm not an expert. IME attempting to differentiate by a 'list.' subdomain or hostname tends to break because people forget that part or it gets stripped along the way.
