[Mailman-Users] Post Server Migration: Changing host_name Insufficient

[Federico Sevilla III]

Hi,

Please ignore my email, below.

I had been searching for the answer before I sent this and could not
find one that worked, but after sending it I finally read about using
"withlist -l -r fix_url listname" in the FAQ and that works.

Sorry for the noise and thank you.

Cheers!
