By that you mean the incoming mail is fine?  Or smtp.log is fine?
smtp.log should include two (or more) lines for each successful post,
like

Jan 02 16:09:17 2025 (42985) <43007@turnbull> smtp to [email protected] for 1 
recips, completed in 0.6027507781982422 seconds
Jan 02 16:09:17 2025 (42985) <43007@turnbull> post to [email protected] from 
[email protected], 992 bytes, 1 failures
Jan 02 16:09:17 2025 (42985) <43007@turnbull> delivery to 
[email protected] failed with code 550, b'5.1.1 
<[email protected]>: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in local 
recipient table'

(That last line shows an example of a failure report.)

Postfix for some reason doesn't know about the alias "localhost" (it
has something to do with trusting the DNS and not reading the
/etc/hosts file).  127.0.0.1 works.

I don't understand how any lists' posts get delivered at all with
that.  If it's postfix it's possible that the connection pool is
exhausted intermittently (but that wouldn't explain why it's
consistently impossible to post to a subset of lists).  You can
specify that connections from the loopback interfaces are less
restricted.  That might help.
