Locks are not relevant to this issue as Mailman never sees the
attempted posts.

Yes, the timestamps on the master-qrunner locks are in the future. That
is the time at which the lock expires.

And has the /var/lib/mailman/data/aliases.db file been updated since
those aliases were added?

In fact does Postfix even use those aliases?
