mailman "message held" form action is http

[strk]

When administering a mailing list, the "held messages" form has an action pointing to http instead of https, which triggers a warning on submit (for legit reasons).

Well, I'll consider this fixed (as the original reporter) - if anyone else has the same problem on any other OSGeo managed mailing list a new ticket can be opened.

For the record: mm_cfg.py is now also in the local git repository for /etc
