next time, show output of 'postconf -n' (no you don't need to send it
unless you still need help).

you are using non fqdn addressess, so test4-request(a)lists.example.com is
mapped to test4-request, which is then completed to
test4-request@$myorigin, which is test4-request(a)example.com. Thus your
problem.

With virtual_alias_maps, use fully qualified addresses (include the
domain part). This way, you'll avoid such surprises...
