Thank you for the reply. Yes, I plan to migrate to Mailman3, but I want it up 
and running on the new domain ncsinet.in.

The Mailman server has Python 2.7.17.

I have made some progress on the new domain, but some issues still need to be 
resolved. Here is what I have done so far:

1. ncsinet.in is FQDN.
2. Changed the hostname of the Mailman server to the new domain ncsinet.in
3. DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST = 'ncsinet.in' & DEFAULT_URL_HOST   = 'ncsinet.in'
4. Created a news list called test123 and have added one subscriber.
5. When I post a message to test...@ncsinet.in, postmas...@ncsinet.in returns 
the following reply:

Your message to test...@ncsinet.in couldn't be delivered.
test123 wasn't found at ncsinet.in.

My relay host is SMTP Office365

My existing list is on the domain 
ncsi.iisc.ernet.in<http://ncsi.iisc.ernet.in>, which is now defunct. I need to 
move my list to a new domain, ncsinet.in<http://ncsinet.in>.

My existing mailman configuration file mm_cfg.py has the following entries:

#-------------------------------------------------------------
# Default domain for email addresses of newly created MLs
DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST = 'localhost.localdomain'
#-------------------------------------------------------------
# Default host for web interface of newly created MLs
DEFAULT_URL_HOST   = 'localhost.localdomain'
#-------------------------------------------------------------

Will setting the DEFAULT_URL_HOST=ncsinet.in<http://ncsinet.in> and fixing the 
URLs for the list on a new domain with "withlist -l -r fix_url [listname] be 
sufficient to have the list up and running on the new domain?


The value of the DEFAULT_URL_HOST should be the FQDN that will be used to 
access the ML - from the browser.
DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST value is the host that handles emails for the list, IIRC.

BTW, what version of Python do you have on that Ubuntu 18.04? And why are you 
stuck on that version?
You could seize this opportunity to migrate to Mailman3 :)
