Maybe I did, but see below:

If lists.mytimewithgod.net is DEFAULT_URL_HOST (but I don't think it
is), run

bin/withlist -l -r fix_url mtwg-prayer

If not run

bin/withlist -l -r fix_url mtwg-prayer -u lists.mytimewithgod.net

OK, that looks good.

And is the virtual-mailman file you quote above in
/var/lib/mailman/data/virtual_mailman or in some other directory?
