>/usr/local/mailman/logs/post shows 19 posts today to the various lists.

The Postfix logs would be of more benefit I think here, as well as the mail 
queue.
 
You say you route mails through a Barracuda host, do you allow traffic directly 
into this machine on port 25 externally?  Is this machine hosting lists only, 
and if so, how is the Barracuda/Postfix server verifying recipients as early as 
possible (in case the domain is receiving large amounts of bounced mail and is 
rejecting with a full NDR and not a bounce at SMTP stage?  Does outbound mail 
get delivered direct from Postfix or are you smarthosting to the Barracuda?

Thanks.
Andrew.
