'host_name': 'lists.customer.com',
'web_page_url': 'http://lists.ourcompany.com/mailman/',

We originally used the vhost patched 2.1.14 from the same repository
that you maintain. I believe in that version the command line
with_url option was broken, but setting these up in the Mailman GUI
did the right thing in terms of setting the hostnames.
All lists were created prior to this upgrade. Looking at the tar
archive of the previous installation, the /var/lib/mailman/lists
directory did not contain one directory per list. Either things got
moved around by "make install" or for reasons unclear to me those
directories did not get backed up.
Is this simply a matter of creating the hostname directories, moving
the lists into the right hostname directories, and re-running fix_url?
