These are list-specific and stored under /var/lib/mailman/lists. We do not 
delete all existing mailinglists upon purge. Whether or not to delete 
such 'databases' which are not really configuration but more userdata upon 
purge is not really decided on within Debian.

How to change the URL for existing lists is detailed in the following FAQ 
entry:
