The web admin General Options setting

Host name this list prefers for email.
(Details for host_name)

Is the list's host_name attribute.

The output from the above command should be one line for each list of
the form

    'host_name': 'example.com',

It doesn't identify the list, but each entry corresponds to the
host_name in the web UI.

OK. Everything seems to be working correctly. It appears that the issue
is with POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS in mm_cfg.py. In order for entries
to be generated in data/virtual-mailman (and data/transport-mailman) for
a list, that list's host_name must be in the
POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS list in mm_cfg.py.

Is that the case?
