You need to set the list's web_page_url attribute to
'http://gator3227.hostgator.com/mailman/'. Unfortunately, you can't set
this via the web admin GUI. There are several ways to set it, but they
all require access to a command shell on the host which you probably
don't have. Possibly you can convince hostgator support to do this for you.

Perhaps the most straightforward way to do this on hostgator's cPanel
Mailman is something like:

#!bin/sh
cd /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman
file=`mktemp`
echo 'web_page_url=http://gator3227.hostgator.com/mailman/' > $file
bin/config_list -i $file members_blpoa.com
rm $file
