Some of the archive pages like the TOC and the current month's index 
will be regenerated with the new name, but most of the pages are static 
at this point, so yes, a rebuild of the archive is required to fix them.

Except I have no idea why you weren't able to change the name via the 
General Options page. I did it myself in my 2.1.11 installation to be 
sure it worked, and it did.

Is your Mailman a package? What version?
