Unfortunately, there are some cases where a message is discarded for
some reason and it's not logged in the "vette" log. Do you have a
"vette" log at all? (If you don't, it's not a problem, it will be
automatically created when needed.) The other places it would be
logged, if it reaches the Outgoing queue, are the "post", "smtp", and
maybe "smtp-failure" logs. You should have "post" and "smtp" logs,
right? ("smtp-failure" is used when the connection fails, and the
message needs to be retried.)
Does the list have archives? Check the archives to see if the message
is there. (I'm pretty sure it won't be, but it slightly narrows the
possible places where the message gets "lost".)
The other possibilities I can think of are that it is hung up in the
retry or shunt queues. Have you checked those? (shunt is more
likely, due to some strangeness in the message. If it's in the retry
queue there should be an entry in the "smtp-failure" log.)

Well, we'll try a little bit harder to figure out what's going on
here.

I don't see any problem here, and although too much is redacted (see
my response to Christian for the "ideal" redaction), the fact that
Postfix says the message was delivered to Mailman is very strong
evidence that it is Mailman that "lost" the message.

This looks OK to me (Mark is the expert, but he's probably deep in the
mountains on his vacation right now :-). However, I'd also like to
see the contents of GLOBAL_PIPELINE if it exists in mm_cfg.py (not
Defaults.py, I'm looking for the SpamAssassin or other special
handlers, which are not present in the Defaults.py GLOBAL_PIPELINE),
and your settings for the three "filters" options under "Privacy
options".
