hi,

I have two instances of Postfix (in + out) on my mail server. I also use
LDAP extensilvely through its Mail and Maildrop fields.

I installed and configured Mailman today. Since its for my internal users,
I added one more aliases file to my outgoing instance configuration like
this:
alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases, hash:/var/mailman/data/aliases

I added the "test" list using Mailman's "newlist" command and added the
lines generated by its output to the /var/mailman/data/aliases file and
did "postmap"

Now when I send a test mail to test at mydomain.com Postfix server says:
-------------
Apr 11 07:44:48 ihqm001a1 postfix-out/smtp[24194]: 431EA27A:
to=<test at mydomain.com>, relay=51.62.51.11[51.62.51.11], delay=10,
status=bounced (host 51.62.51.11[51.62.51.11] said: 550
test at mydomain.com>: User unknown)
-------------

What is wrong? Is my postfix trying to search LDAP for
Mail=test at mydomain.com ... or I have done something wrong somewhere?

Any advice?
Thanks in advance.
