[Mailman-Users] Postfix + Cyrus + Mailman?

It's right there in the alias for the list.  Here's a sample from my aliases:

## test mailing list
## created: 18-Dec-2001 mailman
test:                    "|/home/mailman/mail/wrapper post test"
test-admin:              "|/home/mailman/mail/wrapper mailowner test"
test-request:            "|/home/mailman/mail/wrapper mailcmd test"
test-owner:              test-admin

Notice that the alias for "test" says "pipe the mail into program
/home/mailman/mail/wrapper".

If that doesn't work, look for an error message in the postfix logs.

Best regards,
Mojo
