Something connected from the local computer and sent a message.

The message was to kcheney at mydomain.com. The server attempted to
deliver this by connecting to mydomain.com (IP 10.180.50.2), which
refused to relay to the address kcheney at mydomain.com

The local SMTP server generated a bounce notification and removed the
original message from its queue.

The bounce notification was delivered to mailman's bounce handler, and
the bounce notification was removed from postfix's queue.

The 'removed' is postfix removing messages from its queue, which is
completely normal and correct.

Once again, 'root at listserv.mydomain.com' isn't a member of the list.
This is probably a postfix DSN, which is sent 'from' postfix, or
something similar.

It looks like no posts are actually reaching your mailing list.

Your server doesn't seem to realize that kcheney at mydomain.com is
supposed to be delivered locally. Perhaps this is correct; however,
the smart host that it's set up to deliver through ALSO won't accept
kcheney at mydomain.com. At least one of these is incorrect. If the
mailman server is also the server where you read your mail (e.g., your
POP or IMAP server), then it needs to be configured to accept messages
for kcheney for local delivery. If your SMTP relay host is the server
where you read your mail, IT Needs to be set up to accept mail from
kcheney at mydomain.com for local delivery.
