[Mailman-Users] true virtual hosting

Dony,

As the developers have pointed out you can:

1. Wait for Mailman 3.0
2. Use CPanel which has modified Mailman to support virtual hosts
3. Use the patch you found and get support from the developer and most
likely remain on an older version of Mailman

I have another method that I use with Plesk/Qmail that gets around the issue
without modifying Mailman.  Basically you append the hostname to the
listname for each list.  You then create aliases for the listname within the
virtual host that point to the combined hostname-listname Mailman addresses.
This gets around the single namespace issue.  There is a little overhead do
to the aliases but it is all internal to the machine you are running on.

Happy to provider further details off list if you are interested.


In Service,
