[Mailman-Users] Moving mailman to new host

[Jim Popovitch]

Did the domainname change for the host?  If so, you might need to fix 
the URL for each list.   Check to make sure that DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST and
DEFAULT_URL_HOST are defined properly in mm_cfg.py.  Then run this 
command for each list:

/usr/local/mailman/bin/withlist -l -r fix_url <list>
