The output of postconf -n is much easier to deal with.

How about hash:/var/lib/mailman/data/aliases in alias_maps?

If this postfix is on the Mailman machine, these are not relay domains.
The addresses in these domains will be mapped to local addresses by
Mailman's virtual-mailman in virtual_alias_maps, but then you need
aliases to map those local addresses into pipes to the mailman
wrapper. This is the hash:/var/lib/mailman/data/aliases that's missing
from alias_maps

This all looks like postfix_to_mailman.py stuff. "You must pick one or
the other, though neither of them are to be what they claim" B. Dylan
