This is where I am confused. So the masquerading is rewriting
mailman.pediatrics.wisc.edu to just pediatrics.wisc.edu so it then gets sent
on to the relay host?

The virtual-mailman file is generated by mailman, which also generated an
aliases file that has this:

mailman:             "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman post mailman"
mailman-admin:       "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman admin mailman"

-bounces, -subscribe, etc. are all there. I was just showing you an example.
