Are the messages in Mailman's var/archives/prototype/LIST@DOMAIN/new
directory?
Are there messages in Mailman's var/archives/hyperkitty/spool/ directory?
What's the setting for base_url in mailman-hyperkitty.cfg?
Are there any errors in var/logs/mailman.log?
>>> b. When go to the server using the new domain (both before and after logging in), I see not just the lists I created in the new domain, but the lists created in the old domain. These lists of lists are domain specific and should not be listed together. That’s just IMHO, but not serious, as I will soon get rid of anything in the old domain. So feel free to ignore this one if this is intended, which I could see might be the case.

You shouldn't edit settings.py. You should override the setting by
putting it in settings_local.py.

qcluster is not what you need to restart. You need to restart whatever
is supporting the wsgi interface to Django. This may be uwsgi or
gunicorn or ??. Whatever it is, that's what needs to be restarted.

If you do `ps ax|grep runner=`, what do you see? If you don't see at
least three processes with `--runner=rest:0:1`, stop Mailman and start
Mailman.

This is because of the domain change. In settings(_local).py you have a
setting for SITE_ID. Possibly, setting that in settings_local.py to a
value one greater that the current setting will do. To be certain of the
correct value, you need to look at the django_site table in mailman's
database. That table has 3 columns, id, domain and name. The id for the
row of your domain is what needs to be set as SITE_ID.

Stop Mailman and then start it.
