It is not a 'bug' because Mailman was never designed to provide this support. It is a design limitation. There are plans to redo this for Mailman 3, so that Mailman 3 will provide virtual hosting support without having to worry about list name collisions across hosts. The patches that cPanel and others have done to work around this restriction have not been accepted as appropriate for the distribution because they are generally incomplete and a kind of kludge that requires you to sometimes but not always know that your list's name is really listname_hostname rather than just listname. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
