is data/aliases created by mailman? Or, do I manually create that file?

If you put

MTA = 'Postfix'

in mm_cfg.py, Mailman creates/updates aliases and aliases.db. As long as the timestamp on aliases.db is equal or more recent than that on aliases, you can probably assume that Postfix's postalias command did the right thing in updating aliases.db from aliases.

How do I know that the aliases are correct?

Look at the aliases file.
