You need a Mailman router, which accepts mail for Mailman, and routes the email. Ours says this, where MAILMAN_HOME is a macro specifying the path to Mailman. To this, you need to add a restriction that only addresses in your domain can send email to Mailman. Section 10.19 (address lists) and section 15 (router options) of the documentation are helpful here.
Use "senders = <address_list>" and the address list might, for example, say *@example.com. So your added condition would look like this:
senders = *@example.com
Also, if you have a domain list of local domains, you could say, for example,
senders = *@+local_domains
mailman_router:
driver = accept
require_files = MAILMAN_HOME/lists/$local_part/config.pck
domains = sussex.ac.uk:susx.ac.uk
local_part_suffix_optional
local_part_suffix = -bounces : -bounces+* : \
-confirm+* : -join : -leave : \
-owner : -request : -admin
transport = mailman_transport
NB: please use example.com for example domains. It, and similar domains, are reserved for these purposes.
