I have created a list and also
copy paste the suggested aliases at /etc/aliases and executed "newalias"
command.

If I send a request to listname-request at list.mydomain.com I get an error from
postfix as 

` ` ` ` 
 Recipient address rejected: User unknown in virtual mailbox table
` ` ` `

Do I need to create all such account required by mailman? 

I am confused...... any clue is very much welcome.

TIA
