I eventually tracked it down. The problem was that I had signed in with an account "addw@localhost". That, for some reason, failed validation above. I hacked the database and changed to "addw@localhost.localdomain" and creating the new domain worked.
I could send email to addw@localhost - so at the MTA level it is correct.
So please can the initial account creation do the same validation as does adding a new domain.
Mailman doesn't allow local, unqualified addresses, see https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman/-/blob/master/src/mailman/email/validate.... and https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman/-/blob/master/src/mailman/utilities/email...
On the other hand, Account creation/validation is done by django-allauth over which we have no control.
I have looked but cannot find any documentation on postorius than https://docs.mailman3.org/projects/postorius/en/latest/ which is not helpful for a user or system admin. Can you point me to something better.
Unfortunately, there is not user/list owner documentation for Postorius. As I said at https://lists.mailman3.org/archives/list/mailman-users@mailman3.org/message/... You just have to page through the settings to see what's there. Hopefully the various categories are clear enough that if you're looking for something specific, you can find it easily.
