No. For the above situation you need

POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS = ['lists.example1.org',
    'lists.example2.org', 'lists.example3.org']

The POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS are email domains, not web domains.

lists.example1.org,, etc are virtual_alias_domains, not relay_domains.
Also, it they are in my_destination, they ar not Postfix virtual
domains at all, they are local domains to Postfix.

You need to decide which they are. Either they are in
virtual_alias_domains and not in my_destination, in which case, they
also need to be in POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS and you need the
,hash:/var/lib/mailman/data/virtual-mailman below, or they are in
my-destination and not in virtual_alias_domains, in which case, they
do not need to be in POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS and you do not need
the ,hash:/var/lib/mailman/data/virtual-mailman below

It's only a bit mor complicated than necessary. You do have to add the
lists.example4.org domain to virtual_alias_domains in main.cf and you
do need the

add_virtualhost('example4.org', 'lists.example4.org') in mm_cfg.py as
well as adding 'lists.example4.org' to POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS.
You also probably need to add the example4.org virtual host to the web
server, or if they are local to Postfix, you just have to add
lists.example4.org to my_destination and add the
add_virtualhost('example4.org', 'lists.example4.org') to mm_cfg.py,

but your bin/newlist can be just

newlist --urlhost=example4.org  list4

because newlist will look up the email host from the url host in the
dictionary that's updated with add_virtualhost.

Also, you could create the list from the web via

http://example4.org/cgi-bin/mailman/create

Perhaps you could contact the maintainers of the German translation
(see <http://wiki.list.org/x/Pw>) and ask them to volunteer to create
some.
