[Mailman-Users] Postfix problem: Local deliveries are being smtp delivered instead

Hi all,

After installing mailman into an existing postfix virtual mailserver 
setup, I have been trying to get postfix to deliver email to mailman, 
but have had no luck so far.

All attempts to deliver mail locally get delivered via smtp instead - 
which causes a mail loop and thus a bounce. Mailman never gets a look in.

Has anybody run into hassles like this before? I am stumped.

I inject a mail message like so:

/usr/sbin/sendmail -v xxx-announce at wired.co.za
Hello.
.

The log I get for this message is like so:

Mar  3 16:50:47 chandler postfix/pickup[24195]: A64D4923270: uid=0
from=<root>
Mar  3 16:50:47 chandler postfix/cleanup[24475]: A64D4923270:
message-id=<20050303225047.A64D4923270 at chandler.sharp.fm>
Mar  3 16:50:47 chandler postfix/qmgr[24196]: A64D4923270:

Mar  3 16:50:47 chandler postfix/smtp[24476]: A64D4923270:
to=<xxx-announce at chandler.sharp.fm>, orig_to=<xxx-announce at wired.co.za>,
relay=none, delay=0, status=bounced (mail for chandler.sharp.fm loops back
to myself)

The postconf -n is like so:

Does anyone have any ideas?
