It's not a fatal mistake, but normally, you want
"hash:/etc/mailman/aliases" only in alias_maps and not in
alias_database. This is because Mailman runs postalias to update its
aliases.db whenever Mailman changes its aliases, so you don't need to
have Postfix do it whenever newaliases is run.

As pointed out in another reply, this is a DNS issue. The sending MTA
does not know where to deliver mail for the dom.ac.id domain because
it has no MX or A record in DNS.
