Assuming you are use MM 2.1.1, you want to override the value of the MM 
configuration variable DEFAULT_URL_PATTERN.

Add the following line to your $prefix/Mailman/mm_cfg.py file

DEFAULT_URL_PATTERN = 'http://%s:8080/mailman/'

and then use $prefix/bin/fix_url.py to propagate the change to your 
existing lists.
