Thanks Richard for your useful info. I still however have the same problem. See details below for the modifications I've tried.

One thing I should have said is that after changing hosts and such you may want to run the $prefix/bin/withlist script fix_url.py to update the web_page_url attribute of existing lists.
That said, I do not think that is the cause of this problem.
Have you checked your web server access and error logs to see if they give any clues?
Richard
Regards, Ronald

I replaced my orginal PUBLIC_ARCHIVE_URL with the one above in mm_cfg.py

I replaced my orginal lines with the ones above (commenting out DEFAULT_URL) and filling my sites parameters.

After making the changes above and restarting the apache and mailman daemons, I still have the same problem.
