The above sets of log messages do not relate to the same email messages.
The messages from /var/log/maillo(g) are posts being delivered
(successfully) to the it-hyd at intra.siliconimage.com list. The messages
from /var/log/mailman/smtp-failure(s) relate to the failure of the
subsequent delivery of the owner notice to it-hyd-owner at intra.domain.com.

Have you munged the domain in the smtp-failure messages. These domains
are normally the same. Do you have aliases in postfix for the
it-hyd-owner address as well as the it-hyd address? A full set of
aliases for this list is

it-hyd:             "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman post it-hyd"
it-hyd-admin:       "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman admin it-hyd"
it-hyd-bounces:     "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman bounces it-hyd"
it-hyd-confirm:     "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman confirm it-hyd"
it-hyd-join:        "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman join it-hyd"
it-hyd-leave:       "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman leave it-hyd"
it-hyd-owner:       "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman owner it-hyd"
it-hyd-request:     "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman request it-hyd"
it-hyd-subscribe:   "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman subscribe it-hyd"
it-hyd-unsubscribe: "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman unsubscribe it-hyd"
