I would like to set up a list on my office machine to be accessible to the outside world without using my machine's domain name (bla.bla.bla.umn.edu). Is it possible to:
create some kind of virtual domain like whateverdomain.net that the outside could type into a browser and find my machine at bla.bla.bla.umn.edu?
Configure a mailman list to use that virtual domain in it's list name instead of http://bla.bla.bla.umn.edu/mailman/listinfo/whateverlistname
Any and all advice on this would be greatly appreciated,
Kirk

If you would like to simply have the list use another domain, configure the domain you would like the list to use in the list admin section towards the bottom. (This is, of course, in addition to creating the virtual site in your web server and having your MTA receive email for that domain)
However, if you would like a full separation of virtual domains, where you can have multiple lists with the same name going to different domains (e.g., list1@whateverdomain.net as well as list1@bla.bla.bla.umn.edu), see this thorough and effective treatment from the archive:
