Oops, yeah, I've forgotten to configure my MTA. So, it's done, alsmot:

=> "postmap aliases" :

Im my main.cf (for postfix) :

virtual_alias_maps = mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-virtual_aliases.cf,
mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-virtual_aliases_mailbox.cf,
hash:/var/lib/mailman/data/aliases
virtual_mailbox_maps = mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-virtual_mailboxes.cf,
hash:/var/lib/mailman/data/virtual-mailman

I added "OSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS = ['lists.mydomain.tld']" in
/etc/mailman/mm_cfg.py

Thanks for your help !
