Changing host names, revisited... final steps...

Lastly...
Is there any special order for making these changes, or just:
Make the changes to mm_cfg.py per below
Restart mailman
Run $prefix/bin/withlist -l -a -r fix_url to fix all existing lists
Restart mailman
Done...?
Thanks again,
Charles
******************* My current and proposed new settings:
Defaults.py currently contains
And my current/recently edited mm_cfg.py - the commented settings/lines below are the changes I've added, in preparation for the change, and will just comment/uncomment the relevant ones to 'flip the switch':

It probably isn't necessary to restart Mailman at all for these changes. I would skip the step 2 restart and just to be safe, do the one after fix_url. Or to be really safe, stop Mailman before step 1 and start Mailman at step 4
What about web server changes for the lists.example.com vs. myhost.example.com change (there may not be any), and DNS for the lists.example.com domain?
Note that if 'example.com' is a virtual domain in Postfix, you will need
POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS = ['example.com']
and in that case, I recommend step 0 stop Postfix, Step 3.5 Run $prefix/bin/genaliases, step 4.5 start Postfix.
