Mail to the LIST-request address should never be hels for approval
unless it it also sent to the LIST posting address.

I seems that possibly you have

recipient_delimiter = -

in Postfix's main.cf, but that alonoe should not cause this as the
alias for LIST-request should override the '-' recipient delimiter in
this case, so you apparently have a problem with your Mailman aliases
and/or virtual maps too.
