I posted this some time ago, and it seemed to help.
# Queue, if mail comes from localhost
queue_smtp_domains = ${if eq {127.0.0.1}{$interface_address}{*}{}}
or the more extended version:
# Queue, if mail comes from localhost, and was send by mailman
queue_smtp_domains = ${if and {\

{def::h_X-Mailman-Version::}\
}{*}{}\
