Hello Mark,
thank you for your further reply.
The problem are not the virtual hostnames or the "advertisements" of the listnames. My problem is the internal handling:
Is it possible to change Mailman's internal usage (target for internal redirections) from @hostname.com to @mail.hostname.com (because @hostname.com is used for virtual emails on this server actually).
Kind regards,

My system accepts mails for listname@lists.myserver.de without problems. The only problem is that I can not use the internal redirection from mailman to listname@myserver.de without (internal) postfix-warnings because the domain myserver.de is used by the virtual mailhosting also (see my last post).
So one solution would be to "ask" mailman to redirect all emails not to listname@myserver.de but to listname@MAIL.myserver.de.
I don't think I understand what you want to do. If you want the Mailman list to 'advertise' itself as listname@MAIL.myserver.de, all you need to do is change the list's host_name attribute on the General Options admin page to mail.myserver.de if it isn't already.
If what you are asking is for Mailman to create virtual alias map entries for Postfix of the form
listname@mail.myserver.de listname ...
You need to set
POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS = ['mail.myserver.de']
in mm_cfg.py instead of what you have, and then run Mailman's bin/genaliases to generate Mailman's data/virtual-mailman* files with the appropriate entries. You also need to reference this file in Postfix's virtual_alias_maps.
This is what I tried to say below.

Our postfix-mailserver hosts several domains (virtual mailhosting, postfix/mysql) and "mailman".
The "primary domain" myserver.de is a virtualized domain also. So this domain is not listed in mydestination: --> myhostname = mail.myserver.de mydomain = myserver.de myorigin = $mydomain
mydestination = $myhostname, localhost <--
As far as I understand mailman forwards all emails to the "primary domain" (mydomain) and mailman is only working if I add $mydomain to mydestination.
This is the assumption of Mailman/Postfix integration.
But when doing this there are warnings from postfix that it is not allowed to list the domain in the virtual aliases (mysql-database) and in relay_domains.
Is there any possiblity to configure mailman to forward the emails in ./data/virtual-mailman not to "testliste2@myserver.de" but to "testliste2@mail.myserver.de"?
My actual config is: --> DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST = 'mail.myserver.de' DEFAULT_URL_HOST = 'lists.myserver.de' DEFAULT_URL_PATTERN = 'http://%s/mailman/'
MTA = 'Postfix' POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS = ['lists.myserver.de'] add_virtualhost(DEFAULT_URL_HOST, DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST) <--
I don't understand your configuration. The above Mailman config items say that lists.myserver.de is a postfix virtual domain and that Mailman lists whose host_name is lists.myserver.de will get virtual_mailman entries of the form
testliste2@lists.myserver.de testliste2
(i.e. map the virtual domain address 'testliste2@lists.myserver.de' to local name 'testliste2' where it will be handled by the 'testliste2:' entry in aliases). However, your setting of DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST = 'mail.myserver.de' says lists will be created with a host_name of 'mail.myserver.de', so no virtual_mailman entries will be created at all.
Something is clearly wrong. From your description, I think if you change
POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS = ['lists.myserver.de']
to
POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS = ['mail.myserver.de']
And run Mailman's bin/genaliases, you will get what you want. I.e., you will get virtual_mailman with entries like
testliste2@mail.myserver.de testliste2
which will map the virtual domain list address 'testliste2@mail.myserver.de[' to the local name 'testliste2' which will be delivered to Mailman according to the 'testliste2' alias in Mailman's data/aliases.
