So you replaced your Postfix MTA with some other MTA and you didn't
teach the new MTA how to deliver to Mailman.

Fixing this is a question for vPostMaster. It is not a Mailman issue
per se, and various HowTo documents relating to configuring Mailman
with Postfix are not going to help as long as you are using
vPostMaster as your incoming MTA.

Whatever MTA is listening on port 25 of your Mailman server has to be
configured to deliver list mail to Mailman. I'd be surprised if anyone
on this list is using vPostMaster as an MTA, thus it is unlikely you
can get help here.
