in mm_cfg.py I have:
POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS = ['atf4.com',
'vizion2000.net',
'methulselaproject.org',
'methuselaproject.com',
'ispyforum.com',
'workplacemassage.co.uk',
]
MTA ='Postfix'

Yes. Until you create at least one list in one of those
domains, there
will be no virtual-mailman. As soon as you create such a
list, Mailman
will create virtual-mailman and run postmap.
