This is your MTA (sendmail) telling you it does not know about the list's 
mail alias(es).

Have you added the list's mail aliases to the sendmail aliases file and 
rebuilt the sendmail aliases database?

Typically, on Linux, you should have added the new list's mail aliases to a 
file such as /etc/mail/aliases and run make in the directory /etc/mail or 
some similar incantation depending on the brand of *nix you are running.
