Your mail system is mis-configured in some way. I can only guess, but it
looks like you may have circular aliases for this address, whatever it
is, i.e., this address is aliased to some other address which directly
or indirectly is aliased back to this address.

This looks relatively benign, and I don't think it is related to the
above error. The message-id indicates this is a message generated by
Mailman (either a notice, a confirmation or a digest) on behalf of the
a...@muklists.mak.ac.ug list and it is being sent to a similar address,
a...@dicts.mak.ac.ug which presumably doesn't deliver back to the list
(it would be a problem if it did, but not the cause of the error).

If this is a persistent error, see the FAQ at
<http://wiki.list.org/x/-IA9> for some debugging hints, but it basically
says Mailman was unable to connect to the outgoing MTA to send this
message. If it is persistent, the MTA that mailman is sending to
(probably on localhost:25) is not accepting connects from the Mailman
server (again probably localhost), and Mailman can't send mail at all.
If it is transient, it may be associated with an MTA restart or
something of that nature and can be ignored.
