[Pkg-mailman-hackers] Bug#538817: mailman incorrectly remembers old setting

[Olaf Zaplinski]

Package: mailman
Version: 1:2.1.11-11
Severity: normal

I used to have mailman running at list1.foo.bar. After some time, I purged mailman.
About half a year later I reinstalled mailman and configured it at list2.bar.foo.

When I open my browser on http://list2.bar.foo/mailman/admin/mailman and klick on
"General options", the URL changes to http://list1.foo.bar/cgi-bin/mailman/admin/mailman/general

So when running dpkg -P mailman, not all config files are deleted.

Which ones are these?
