[Mailman-Users] User with same name of a mailman list not receiving e-mails

[Centro de Apoio Técnico da APM]

Hi,

1. Probably the best way is to change the name of the list to not  
match the name of the user of our system.But still there may be way  
to do this?

2. If the solution is in virtual domains configuration of Postfix, is  
there anyone that can help me with the setup?

I am looking for something like this:

user at domain.com should receive messages sent to user at domain.com
user at mailinglist.domain.com should receive messages sent to  
user at mailinglist.domain.com
messages sent to user at domain.com should NOT be sent to  
user at mailinglist.domain.com

Thanks for any help,
João.
