Actually, the mail server works properly - at least it accepts mails
for the proper email addresses. The problem rather lies in the emails
sent by mailman (links in emails and in the admin ui) and in the way
the directory generates the email addresses shown in Directory.app or
the way OpenDirectory uses the host name to generate email addresses.
One example for this would also be the fact that in simple setup
(which I tried once), the server configures the client apps (when
using auto configuration) with user(at)server.example.com.
What are the best practices for my kind of setup?

So now my question: For a typical mail server setup where the
server's
host name should be different from the domain served
(server.example.org vs. example.org), which settings have to be made
to achieve that email addresses always use the domain name
name(at)example.org whereas links (like links to group wikis, mailing
list admin pages etc.) always use the host name server.example.org?
This seems to be a typical requirement for a mail server, so I'm
surprised this neither can be setup intuitively using the built in
tools nor isn't mentioned anywhere in the docs (there, the email
addresses always use the host name as the domain part).
Start with the output of "postconf -n".
