It's hard to say what might be happening without knowing what exactly
you're doing in mm_cfg.py, but some things which are set in
Defaults.py are also used in Defaults.py. Thus simply changing the
setting in mm_cfg.py isn't enough, you also have to redo (maybe after
undoing) the usage.

The most obvious example is DEFAULT_URL_HOST and DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST.
These are set in Defaults.py and then used in Defaults.py in

add_virtualhost(DEFAULT_URL_HOST, DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST)

Thus if either or both is changed in mm_cfg.py, the

add_virtualhost(DEFAULT_URL_HOST, DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST)

must be repeated after the change, or to be completely sure, clear the
existing entries and then re-add as in

VIRTUAL_HOSTS.clear()
add_virtualhost(DEFAULT_URL_HOST, DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST)

If you're still having problems, please provide the contents of your
mm_cfg.py and a description of the actual problem behavior.
