- What database are you using?[1] Is it running? If not, yes, that file is going to be empty.
- Do you have any lists configured for your Mailman 3 instance? If not, that file will be empty.
- Is Mailman running? (This probably isn't necessary, just checking.)
- Is there a postfix_lmtp.db file in the same place? (Postfix will not read the plaintext version, it must be a .db file.)
If you haven't set incoming in the mta section of mailman.cfg to
other than the default mailman.mta.postfix.LMTP, the mailman aliases
command will at least write
# AUTOMATICALLY GENERATED BY MAILMAN ON {}

# This file is generated by Mailman, and is kept in sync with the binary

to the postfix_lmtp file.
