Take another look at those entries. We're talking about running
a second instance of postfix, on another port, with a special
configuration (disabling all anti-virus/anti-spam stuff, all DNS
lookups, etc...), and Mailman talking only to this second instance of
postfix.
If this fact is not clear, please feel free to suggest ways that
the wording could be improved. Alternatively, feel free to clean up
or clarify the wording yourself.

That's the page for the main FAQ Wizard. Which specific page
