Just what URL are you talking about? Yhe only one that should look like
http://myhost/mailman/admin is the one on the listinfo page in "List
administrators, you can visit the _list admin overview page_ to find
the management interface for your list."

The ones for individual lists should all be of the form
http://myhost/mailman/admin/<listname>

Not really.

There isn't a separate setting for admin URL. The list specific ones
are all generated from the list attribute web_page_url which is set at
list create time by interpolating the host into DEFAULT_URL_PATTERN.

The _list admin overview page_ link from the listinfo page is generated
on the fly using DEFAULT_URL_PATTERN.
