Thanks Mark for your reply. It is a great help to
understand some basic things about mailman.

I am not sure about this functionality of python, but
what you are saying seems to right. After this
explanation, it is little bit clear to me now why the
second domain is taking the previous value. But i dont
have any other option because i have to use only one
url i.e 'lists.bijayant.com'. So all the lists created
have to take the same url 'lists.bijayant.com'.

I have not tried this yet, because list creator is
creating the list via the web-interface and he do not
have access the box where the mailman is running. I
will try this and let you know.
