It appears you have a situation where the MX for the Mailman domains is not the Mailman server. You need to configure the MTA on box2.gtahardware.co.za to relay Mailman's mail to the mailman server. You can to this by configuring that MTA to use transport_maps, etc as if it were the Mailman server. In order to get Mailman's generated files on the other server, you need to create a process to do that. When Mailman makes changes by adding or deleting lists or when it is started, it updates the postfix_lmtp and postfix_domains files and calls a command (normally postmap) to update the corresponding .db files. The command can be set by setting
postmap_commandin the[postfix]section in mailman.cfg.I'm not able to find any documentation about
postmap_command, not even in the schema.cfg. If I have to provide method to update the postfix_lmtp and postfix_domains on another server, then it would have to something like sftp? mailman changes the files on the mailman server (in a location I set) and then postmap_command copies those files to the destination on the MTA server. Is that in principle what needs to be done?Read this thread and take a keen look at the solution provided by @Stephen J. Turnbull <turnbull.stephen.fw@u.tsukuba.ac.jp> :

Excellent! I think I can get the sshfs route working, but the pending database solution is elegant! I love it! Thanks for the pointer.
