I did not touch the MTA setting, the only things I added are

DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST
DEFAULT_URL_HOST
DEFAULT_URL_PATTERN
PUBLIC_ARCHIVE_URL
add_virtualhost(DEFAULT_URL_HOST, DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST)
DELIVERY_MODULE = 'SMTPDirect'
SMTPHOST
SMTPPORT

Communication itself seems fine, i recieved a subscription reminder this 
morning from mailman-owner.
