Hopefully this fix doesn't fall into the too involved category. This sanity check was failing even when the emailhost and domain were the same:

         if not emailhost:

-        else:
+        elif emailhost != domain:
             usage(1, _('You cannot use an email host different from the domain part of the list name.'))
         if not mm_cfg.VIRTUAL_HOSTS.has_key(urlhost):
             _urlhost = repr(urlhost)
