False.

Example:

  https://www.kanga.nu/lists/listinfo/

  (Yeah, its "lists" instead of "mailman" -- its just a custom
  Apache conf, nothing more).

More traditional example:

  http://lists.svlug.org/lists/listinfo/

There no custom editing of files required or done in either case.
The list of lists is dynamically generated.

Please don't spread FUD.
