mm_cfg.py how you adviced (SMTPHOST='t2.pvt.cz',
SMTPPORT='25').
Have a nice day.

These log entries are the delivery of posts to Mailman and represent
sucessfull deliveries despite the warnings.
Which indicates that the outgoing MTA Mailman is talking to
is neither
sendmail nor Postfix.
"mailman", but withouth usable result.
It is not a Mailman message. It comes from the MTA.
Have you redefined SMTPHOST and/or SMTPPORT in mm_cfg.py. If not,
Mailman is trying to send via SMTP to 'localhost' port 25.
What happens
if you 'telnet localhost 25'? What MTA answers?

These errors are reported from the outgoing MTA to Mailman
when Mailman tries to send a message (in this case to
root[at]t2.pvt.cz).
In Postfix maillog subscriptions looks like "send":

When I tried mailman with sendmail, result was the same
(the same error messages in smtp-failure file).Which indicates that the outgoing MTA Mailman is talking to
is neither
sendmail nor Postfix.
Sending and receiving e-mails to/from users on this server
(t2.pvt.cz) works properly.
I tried to find in conferences error message "Addres family
was not recognized or address length was invalid." with(t2.pvt.cz) works properly.
I tried to find in conferences error message "Addres family
