Actually, data/sitelist.cfg does not control anything. It is a
suggested configuration for the site list (usually named mailman) as
the default settings often aren't appropriate for this list. It is
used as input to config_list as in

  bin/config_list -i data/sitelist.cfg mailman

This is the address of the site list. The message is built on the fly
by the Mailman/Cgi/listinfo.py script. There is no way to change it
short of modifying this code.

What you do is configure the site list so that mail to that address
goes where you want or produces an autoresponse with appropriate
information.
