Yeah, I was wondering about that when I was looking at it just now.
Let's look at the first alias for example:
caerllewys-t...@caerllewys.net sympa:caerllewys-t...@caerllewys.net
I tried simply removing the domain on the LHS:
caerllewys-test sympa:caerllewys-t...@caerllewys.net
But that on its own didn't work, so I revised it again:
caerllewys-test: sympa:caerllewys-t...@caerllewys.net
But that doesn't work either:
<"sympa:caerllewys-test"@caerllewys.net> (expanded from
<caerllewys-t...@caerllewys.net>): unknown user: "sympa:caerllewys-test"
What's clearly SUPPOSED to be happening here is that mail to
caerllewys-t...@caerllewys.net (and all other Sympa list addresses) is
supposed to be delivered via the sympa: transport. But this evidently
isn't the correct way to do it, and I'm not certain whether I should be
doing it in the transport or virtual table, or exactly how. I have
never used the virtual table and don't honestly know what I'm doing with it.

Well, this part of the error message is part of what I don't understand.
I don't get what Postfix thinks is not local about any part of this.
