Correct. If you make changes to Defaults.py it will work BUT they will 
be lost when you install a Mailman update. You site specific changes to 
mm_cfg.py are not lost on updates.

The default for this is:

PUBLIC_ARCHIVE_URL = 'http://%(hostname)s/pipermail/%(listname)s'

why do you want to change it? But you need to ensure that an Alias 
directive(s) in in your Apache web server httpd.conf (or whatever) 
associates the /pipermail/ location with the correct file path, for 
instance:

Alias /pipermail/ /usr/local/mailman/archives/public/

The standard default for this is:

DEFAULT_URL_PATTERN = 'http://%s/mailman/'

again, why do you want to change it?

But you need to ensure that the ScriptAlias directive(s) in in your 
Apache web server httpd.conf (or whatever) associates the /mailman/ 
location with the correct file path, for instance:

ScriptAlias /mailman/ /usr/local/mailman/cgi-bin/
