I think I can sell the virtual domain capabilities to my client. Any pointers out there to help get me started? Also, will implementing this pose great risk on breaking my existing mailman configurable (meaning can I break the entire server by trying to implement this)?
The Mailman part of it is very simple and easily reversed.
In Defaults.py you have
DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST = 'www.example.com' DEFAULT_URL_HOST = 'mail.example.com'
where the domains are yours or ??
There is also a
##### # Virtual domains #####
section which you should read and which contains
add_virtualhost(DEFAULT_URL_HOST, DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST)
Those lines may be repeated in mm_cfg.py with the same or different domain names.
The sole change to Mailman is to add
add_virtualhost('www2.example.com', 'mail2.example.com')
to mm_cfg.py where the actual domain names are those of the second domain.
You will also need to set up the web server and MTA for the second domains.
Then you can create lists in the second domain with bin/newlist (see bin/newlist --help) or by visiting the mailman/create page from the second domain.
