Alas, Mailman simply users the listname here and chops off any included
domain name. If you want the Domain name included in the mailing properly,
then you will have to use the "generics" tables for Sendmail - or move your
MTA over to something that does virtual domains easier.
Postfix does Virtual domains quite easily. You might want to look at using
that for your MTA instead of Sendmail (though I'm still a die-hard Sendmail
fan!).
