mailman configuration issue with a functional postfix server
Hello list,
This is an open-suse 11.4 box with a postfix server, support multidomain and functional since 2006.
I have installed mailman here. I have followed the suse README file shipped with this mailman package and done the configuration accordingly. I have created a list and can sent there subscription request. the system also sent me back the mail having confirmation code. Good..... A reply to that message do noting and not get any mail after sending reply to that again and again. So completed subscription with web link. Welcome mail sentarrived. Not bad till now. But when I sent mail to the list, those mails are not distributed... :-( I think there is something missing in postfix ( actually in the manual) that mailman can't sent confirmation as well as distribute the mail to the list.
The main.cf and master.cf is unchanged as there is nothing in README which advise to do any modification.
From mail.log it is seen the messages are successfully delivered to the list account. No warning.
The welcome message is according to standard template and the links given at that message are all working well.
Could someone kindly enlighten me to realize the missing link ?

Mail to list addresses should not be delivered to an account/mailbox/maildir. It should be piped to the mail/mailman wrapper with an appropriate command.

THIS VERY POINT makes me think, think and think...... This is a multidomain system, so have virtual domain structure. Now I have already the list@mydomain.com, list-request@mydomain.com physically exist in my mail system, otherwise postfix sent error that the recipient address was not known.
I already have this at master.cf
mailman unix - n n - - pipe
flags=FR user=list argv=/etc/mailman/postfix-to-mailman.py
${nexthop} ${user}
But no luck yet...
