If I understand what follows, the problem is not with list
creation, but
rather it is with the icon images on all Mailman web pages.

But it is not the path which will get Apache to the icons
because Apache
is going to prepend the DocumentRoot

Not Mailman, Apache.

Which is the root of the problem. If you remove this line
from
mm_cfg.py, you will be left with the Defaults.py setting
IMAGE_LOGOS = '/icons/'
This then will be matched by the
Alias /icons/ "/usr2/virtualwebs/icons/"
that probably exists in the Apache configuration. I may have
the details
of this path wrong, but the idea is that there is already an
alias in
the Apache configuration that points to Apache's icons. You
add
Mailman's icon files to Apache's icons directory, and if
necessary, you
set IMAGE_LOGOS to match Apache's alias for icons.
