I am aware there wasn't this problem, because the two users told me 
about this problem only after I moved the mailing list to the new 
server. Before the move, they could use the mailing list just fine.

You are absolutely right, my mistake. It's the host where mailman is 
installed, the new server.

See above, it's lists.granellodisenape.org.

I've tried, here are the results: http://zonemaster.net/test/13162

Seems to me the two warnings can't be the cause of a "non-existant 
domain" error.

I confirm the problem is still present, and your suggestion confirms 
what I was fearing: I won't be able to solve this problem, because I 
need assistance from alice.it, the italian telco with a nice call center 
full of monkeys, and I'm not even between their customers. I'm going to 
tell the two users the only viable solution is changing email provider.
