I will work through this in a bit, but the Amahi Home Server runs on 
Fedora 12 uses Apache and for a webapp like mailman, it has its own 
.conf file in /etc/http/conf.d that is set up with a basic virtual host 
configuration for webapp/foo/com.  It was a small matter to remove much 
of the original content and put in the mailman.conf specific 
definitions.  Once I get mailman working for Amahi, I will be submitting 
it to the maintains so that it can be a 'standard' single click app.  Or 
I hope I can get it working well.  It will be an addon to what we have 
done for a postfix mail server for Amahi.
