It depends. If the configured values for DEFAULT_URL_HOST and
DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST in Defaults.py are correct, you don't need any
add_virtualhost() or VIRTUAL_HOSTS.clear() directives in mm_cfg.py.

If you need to change these or if you just want the settings in
mm_cfg.py for documentation purposes, put

DEFAULT_URL_HOST = '...'
DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST = '...'
VIRTUAL_HOSTS.clear()
add_virtualhost(DEFAULT_URL_HOST, DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST)

in mm_cfg.py. Note that you must have one VIRTUAL_HOSTS entry for
DEFAULT_URL_HOST and DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST. This is added in Defaults.py,
but may not be the correct names. The purpose of VIRTUAL_HOSTS.clear()
in mm_cfg.py is to remove the possibly erroneous entry added in
Defaults.py. It isn't really necessary to do this in any case, but
it's cleaner.

They won't be removed, and they don't need to be, but the reference to
data/virtual-mailman in Postfix virtual_alias_maps needs to be removed.

Probably not.
