I've got it working with qmail using a different approach.

I subscribe an addtional user to my mailing list, lets call him fudlist1(at)mylistdomain(dot)com, and I direct my mail through procmail.

In .procmailrc I have:

:0:
* ^TO_.*fudlist1(at)mylistdomain(dot)com
{
EXITCODE=99
:0
| /path/to/scripts/maillist.php 8
}

In this way mail is forwarded to the forum only after it has been through the mailing list (ezmlm in my case) and so is subject to restrictions on subscribers etc imposed there.

Your way would, I think, mean that any emails to the list address, even non-subscribers to your list or forum, would automatically be forwarded to maillist.php, which may not be what you want if a spammer gets hold of your list address...
