Probably, but you need to look at the full raw headers of the message
rather than what's displayed as From: by some MUA.

with VIRTUAL_HOST_OVERVIEW Off, there are potentially 3 domains
involved. These are the DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST domain, the host_name
attribute of the 'mailman' list and the 'host_name' attribute of the
individual lists.

The list(s) in the body of the password reminder are identified as
list@domain. This domain is the host_name attribute of the list. This
only appears in the body, not in the headers of the reminder.

Additionally, the reminder is From: mailman-owner@domain where domain
is DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST, but the envelope sender (Return-Path: header)
and the Sender: and Errors-To: headers are all mailman-bounces@domain
where domain is the host_name attribute of the 'mailman' list.
