Since I have no experience running mailman so I can't estimate all the
risks, but you you should pay attention to IPv6. linode01 does have an
AAAA record and at alterway we do not have IPv6. Should be fine because
of CNAMEs, but can't hurt to check.

Other than that I think we should upgrade alterway02. I think the oVirt
version there isn't the most recent and any disruptive upgrades should
be done before anything end-user facing runs there.
