Have you created the list before setting DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST and/or
DEFAULT_URL_HOST correctly? In this case, you need to call:

 /var/lib/mailman/bin/withlist -l -r fix_url ${LISTNAME}

Else, please do the following:

/var/lib/mailman/bin/withlist -i ${LISTNAME}
m.getListAddress('request')
m.GetListEmail()
m.GetRequestEmail()
m.internal_name()
m.host_name
m.GetConfirmEmail("foo")

What are the answers?
