I've configured an internal server to manage internal mailing lists
with Mailman. I'd like to use Postfix virtual aliases to handle list
addresses. Server is FreeBSD 6.1-STABLE/Intel, Postfix is 2.2.10, and
Mailman is 2.1.8. The changes I made to main.cf:
  mydomain = thewrittenword.com
  myorigin = $mydomain
  inet_interfaces = $myhostname, localhost
  local_recipient_maps = $alias_maps
  mynetworks = 192.168.0.0/24, 192.168.1.0/24, 127.0.0.0/8
  alias_maps = hash:/ext/postfix/aliases,
          hash:/ext/postfix/mailman-aliases,
          hash:/etc/opt/TWWfsw/mailman21/aliases
  alias_database = hash:/ext/postfix/aliases,
          hash:/ext/postfix/mailman-aliases
  masquerade_domains = !lists.il.thewrittenword.com,
          !lists.thewrittenword.com
  virtual_alias_domains = lists.il.thewrittenword.com,
          lists.thewrittenword.com
  virtual_alias_maps = hash:/etc/opt/TWWfsw/mailman21/virtual-mailman

$ dig il.thewrittenword.com mx
il.thewrittenword.com. 1D IN MX 10 rom.il.thewrittenword.com.

$ dig lists.il.thewrittenword.com mx
lists.il.thewrittenword.com. 1D IN MX 10 maetel.il.thewrittenword.com.

/etc/opt/TWWfsw/mailman21/aliases has:
  build: "|/opt/TWWfsw/mailman21/mail/mailman post build"
/etc/opt/TWWfsw/mailman21/virtual-mailman has:
  virtual-alias.domain anything
   build

If I send mail to one of the list addresses,
, I get the following:
  $ telnet maetel smtp
  Connected to maetel.il.thewrittenword.com.
  Escape character is '^]'.
  220 maetel.il.thewrittenword.com ESMTP Postfix (2.2.10)
  mail from: <>
  250 Ok
  rcpt to: <>
  250 Ok
  data
  354 End data with <CR><LF>.<CR><LF>
  to: <>
  From: <>
  Subject: Test

  test
  .
  250 Ok: queued as D0256CA

On maetel, /var/log/maillog has:
  Sep 30 22:59:54 <2.6> maetel postfix/qmgr[5957]: D0256CA: from=<>, size=445, nrcpt=1 (queue active)
  Sep 30 22:59:55 <2.6> maetel postfix/smtp[5960]: D0256CA: to=<>, orig_to=<>, relay=mail1.thewrittenword.com[67.95.107.114], delay=6, status=bounced (host mail1.thewrittenword.com[67.95.107.114] said: 550 <>: User unknown in local recipient table (in reply to RCPT TO command))

Why isn't mail to delivered locally
because of the /etc/opt/TWWfsw/mailman21/virtual-mailman entry and the
/etc/opt/TWWfsw/mailman21/aliases entry? I'd expect Postfix to first
read /etc/opt/TWWfsw/mailman21/virtual-mailman, discover the
" build" entry, and then read
/etc/opt/TWWfsw/mailman21/aliases to look up an entry for "build" and
then deliver to the command specified for the "build" alias entry.

But, it seems to think is non-local,
rewrites to destination to , and attempts
delivery to the mail server for thewrittenword.com, which doesn't know
about .

Any ideas?
