Re: django app for managing sending email to users...

Think of the email you get from a social networking site when someone wants to add you as a friend. Or forum software that emails subscribers to a thread when there's been a new post. I also have the occasional need to send administrative email to all users on a site or announcements to those that have opted-in to receive them (although my own preference in that case is for there to be an Atom feed). I was thinking of developing a django app for this with support for queuing and throttling of sends, scheduled sends, and logging of mail failures. I'm NOT interested at all in using it for unsolicited email (although unfortunately there's nothing in the design I have in mind that would prevent its use for that, I don't think) I think I would find this useful a *lot* for work, so I would be very happy to help, if necessary.

In your Apache configuration, do you have multiple VirtualHost definitions for sites under the same parent domain and have a ServerAlias directive in any which contains a wildcard which would match a different VirtualHost containers ServerName directive? For example: ServerName www.site.com ... ServerName site.com ServerAlias *.site.com ... Do the mixing up of pages always relate to the virtual hosts which contain the ServerAlias and the alternate virtual host the ServerAlias matches, or are they totally unrelated sites with totally different domain names?
