Thanks. I've already set DEFAULT_URL_HOST and DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST
(without add_virtualhost) hoping that would be enough.

It doesn't look like this is necessary.

Absolutely. On the 10.2.8 server, I have a line in /etc/hosts that looks like
this:
127.0.0.1 localhost domain.com xxx.local xxx.domain.com
lists.domain.com www.domain.com
Which does a good job of telling the Mac which names it ought to answer to.
Other machines on the local network are also handled through /etc/hosts,
and they also have other local machines in their /etc/hosts. It's all old-
fashioned and Unix-y. If I had a bigger network, I'd do it on a local
name server.
It also means that I can't tell when my Mailman pages have gone AWOL to
the rest of the world. My machine always knows where they are, even if
the domain MX entries have gone missing.
