:-) 

Thank you for the nice analogy.  Indeed, I have no IFR rating (translation:
know very little about MTAs, Python, and configuring Mailman).  Therefore,
I decided that I need ground help.  And hints as the above about aliases or
Mark Sapiros post are very important for me.

I guess that the problem is indeed what Mark Sapiro wrote, because the two
names are indeed a peculiarity of my setup.  Tomorrow, we (I and our domain
administrator) want to try changing the names for the server.  I'll report
back, if it does (or does not) help.

Thanks to everyone,
Nicolas Neuss
