Mail delivery bounces - why

I just replaced an old mailman server last night and was sent an email saying that mail is bouncing. What could be causing this?

The old server had the email: listmaster@washburnlaw.edu as the list administator. But now email is trying to deliver to admin@washlaw.edu. How can this be corrected?

Change it on the lists admin web interface General Options page.

I went into a few lists and see that the email is listmaster@washlaw.edu. I don't know where this admin@lists.washlaw.edu is coming from. I am assuming this is some default setting within Mailman or somewhere esle which I need to locate and change. I never created the account manually. I upgraded Mailman like usual. The name of my host is lists.washlaw.edu.
Thanks!

There are no default addresses that mailman sends to. If mailman is trying to send something to admin@lists.washlaw.edu, it is either a response to something from that address or that address is an owner, moderator or member of some list. Have you checked the site (mailman) list?
I upgraded Mailman like usual.
From what version to what version?
