host vs alias (CNAME) and listinfo
:-) If you compare: http://alpha.mini.pw.edu.pl/mailman/listinfo http://www.mini.pw.edu.pl/mailman/listinfo you will see different public lists. The "www" is a CNAME od "alpha" so this is the same host. When creating a new list there is no hostname choice (AFAIK). In the administration panel I can't see this option too. What is the source of this difference? Best ragards, MArek

See the FAQs at <http://wiki.list.org/x/mIA9> and <http://wiki.list.org/x/lYA9> and perhaps others.
When creating a list from the web, the host name is the host in the URL you used to access the create page.
When creating a list with bin/newlist, the default host name is DEFAULT_URL_HOST, but there are options to specify another host. See bin/newlist --help.

As Mark said there is an option (as I recently learned) to newlist to specify which domain the list belongs to.
Also remember that with web sites, you can have as many web sites hosted on an HTTP 1.1 server as you want because of the "Host:" header specifying which web site you are trying to access.
