I've never done multiple installations of Mailman, and I don't know if
it's even possible, but if it is, all you would have to do is setup
each installation under a different user (mailman-thisdomain,
mailman-another, mailman-domain, etc), and in the
/var/qmail/control/virtualdomains file, just add something to the
effect of this:

lists.mydomain1.tld:mailman-domain1
domain2.tld:mailman-domain2
morelists.domain3.tld:mailman-domain3

That's all assuming it's not a huge deal setting up multiple
installations of mailman, so if someone can bring some more experience
to the table on that issue, it would be apreciated I'm sure.
