That's because it doesn't involve Mailman. Mailman has given the message to
your MTA; it's now the MTA who is (correctly) retrying delivery.
If you feel you must violate the accepted timeout periods helping to
ensure reliable Internet mail delivery, or if you just want to punish this
user for having flaky DNS, you can probably remove queued messages by hand
(if it's sendmail) or perhaps with some more-complex procedure (for some
other MTA).
