Standard Mailman supports multiple virtual hosts from a single instance with the restriction that all list names must be unique across all hosts. This restriction is planned to be removed for Mailman 2.2 and there are various patches available for Mailman 2.1 which may or may not work. See <http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq04.047.htp>. If you can live with the unique list name restriction, the Mailman part of virtual hosting is simple. In mm_cfg.py, just put add_virtualhost() directives for the additional host(s), e.g. add_virtualhost('www2.example.com', 'lists2.example.com') Then web created lists will be created with the proper web and mail host names based on the host name of the URL that accessed the create page. bin/newlist has options for specifying domains other than DEFAULT_URL_HOST and DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST. Lists will only be shown on the overview page for the accessing host unless you set VIRTUAL_HOST_OVERVIEW = Off. Of course, you have to set up the virtual domains in the web server and in the incoming MTA so that the web server invokes the mailman CGIs for Mailman URLs for all the hosts and the MTA properly delivers list mail for any host to Mailman. These latter things are specific to your web server, MTA and virtual hosting setup. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
