Mark, All I did was follow the instructions in UPGRADE included with 2.1.8. There is a Defaults.py at /path/to/mailman/Mailman/Defaults.py with the line OLD_STYLE_PREFIXING = Yes in it. So, unless the instructions in UPGRADE (basically, to run ./configure with the same options as the previous install and then execute a make install) are flawed, there shouldn't be any reason why I got that error. Nevertheless, I seem to get no errors in any of Mailman's logs or Exim's logs after I made that change. Not sure why it wouldn't pick up the line in Defaults.py....
