[Mailman-Developers] Virtual Domain update?

[Derek Simkowiak]

	What is the current status of virtual domain support?

	(By "virtual domain support", I am referring to the ability of a single 
Mailman installation to serve lists in different domains, even if the 
lists have the same "name").

	The only up-to-date information I could find is this from the file NEWS:

----------------------------------------------
2.1 beta 4 (26-Oct-2002)
[...]
         o bin/fix_url.py grew some command line options to support 
moving a list to a specific virtual domain.


2.1 alpha 3 (22-Oct-2001)
[...]
        o Better virtual host support by adding a mapping from the host 
name given in cgi's HTTP_HOST/SERVER_NAME variable to the email host 
used in list addresses.  (E.g. www.python.org maps to @python.org).
----------------------------------------------

	If one can move a list "to a specific virtual domain", that would imply 
support for virtual domains.  And yet I cannot find any information 
about this feature.  In fact, README.EXIM (I happen to use Exim) 
specifically states that virtual domains (with overlapping list names) 
are not yet supported.

	As an admin trying to find information about virtual domain support, 
this has been a frustrating experience.  (Also, this seems like it would 
be a feature high on the priority list, but I've been waiting for over a 
year for it.  Why not simply save lists/stuff as lists/domain/stuff?)


Thanks,
