sorry, ignore that. I was mistaken.  That is the port that is used to
communicate to TCPGUI.  The default is 2306 and there is no reason to change
that.   LISTSERV is designed to co-exist perfectly with an existing main
website.  Frankly it would be lots easier if you didn't have a principal problem
with your regular webserver.

probably the easiest solution is to add a second IP and configure it for Port
80, rather then to try to use a strange port.  all you need to do is to is the
dual homing, dual IP for the server.  (But I would set TCPGUI_ADDR to the
appropriate IP address.)

In this case you may need to specify the full URL for the WWW_ARCHIVE_CGI= in
your site.cfg/go.user instead of just the relative URL.  You may also need to
configure the webserver to bind these activities to the one IP address.  Since I
don't know what IP or webserver you will be using, I can't be specific on the
steps to do so, but they should be clear in the documentation for your chosen
webserver program.
