First see the FAQ at <http://wiki.list.org/x/OIDD>.

Then see the results of this Google search
<http://www.google.com/search?q=site:mail.python.org+inurl%3Amailman-users+%22postfix_to_mailman.py%22>;
in particular see
<http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2012-September/074017.html>


postfix_to_mailman.py is a third-party package which is not distributed
by the GNU Mailman project, nor is it officially supported by the GNU
Mailman project. It is an alternative to and incompatible with
delivery to mailman via aliases and virtual alias maps.
