add_virtualhost is not mentioned in the postfix section because it's
not a postfix related setting per se.

Section 7 Review your site defaults urges you to read Defaults.py

You don't have to reload Postfix after changing aliases and/or
virtual-mailman. The commands defined in POSTFIX_ALIAS_CMD and
POSTFIX_MAP_CMD are run automatically and update the .db files and
Postfix will notice they've changed.

What's in the postfix log?

Do all your  email domains use the same web domain?

Do you care if list mail from the l...@example.net list refers to the
example.com domain in web URLs?
