I don't run postfix, even on my Red Hat boxes. I use sendmail. You can
uninstall postfix and install sendmail and fedora should be happy. It
just needs a mail program.
That being said, I would look into some sort of rate limiting feaature in
postfix that could be choking on the number of messages your Listserv box
is delivering to it.
Good luck.
