Wow, it work as expected, hura :-)
Thank you very much!

OK, no problem

I have manually changes either on /etc/aliases and
/var/lib/mailman/data/virtual-mailman, and now all listname-bounce
copied to list-owner <Address> as expected.
Again, thank you for your help Mark.

BTW. What is the proper format of VIRTUAL_MAILMAN_LOCAL_DOMAIN  in
mm_cfg.py (or /var/lib/mailman/Mailman/Defaults.py) when I have multiple
domain in POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS?
