Oh Thomas, you're so close you should be able to smell it! :)

Changing DEFAULT_URL in mm_cfg.py fixes the problem for any new lists
you create, but won't fix it for lists you created before changing
that variable.  Once a list is created, that variable is stuffed into
the MailList object's m.web_page_url attribute.  (Note that
m.host_name comes from DEFAULT_HOST_NAME which might also have to be
changed.)

To fix this, run bin/withlist like so:

% python -i bin/withlist -l mylist
Loading list mylist (locked)
>>> m.web_page_url
'http://www.mysite.com/mailman/'
>>> m.web_page_url = 'http://www.mysite.com/mailman2/'
>>> m.Save()
>>> ^D
Unlocking (but not saving) list: mylist
Finalizing

Cheers,
