I changed it from mail.freesoftware.fsf.org to gnu.org yesterday and
then sent off the question to you.  I assumed that if you really
wanted it at mail.freesoftware.fsf.org you could argue for it and
defend it.

The addresses are configured through the mailman interface in the
"General Options" page, "Host name this list prefers" and "Base URL
for Mailman web interface".  But as I said I changed those back to
gnu.org yesterday.

That must be it.  When GNU Core Utils was set it up it must have been
set up like a non-gnu project instead of a gnu project.  All fixed now.
