[Mailman-Users] mailman failing to use /mailman/alias when calling .cgi scripts

[s.slade.gauntt at accenture.com]

Jon:

Thanks, this solved the problem.  I changed the DEFAULT_URL in my mm_cfg.py
file so that the BASE_URL on all my new lists now defaults to this value.
I figured it was something simple.

Thanks again,

In the admin setup, under "General Options" what is the Base URL set to?
Based on your example above, it should be:
  http://<mydomain.com>/mailman/

If you left off the /mailman/ on the end, then that would account for what
you described...
