    You have mailman installed as 'foo.com', so it never knows about the
'www' part.  Mailman is not responsible for how you set it up, it does what
you tell it to.  If you told it to install as 'www.foo.com', it will also
work that way.

    All of my lists sit on 'lists.vdomain.com' and they work just fine as
soon as I add a new list.  There is no editing to be done anywhere, no
domains to be changed, nothing.  None of them conflict with one another,
and I can have the same list name under several domains and everything
works just fine (as separate lists).  The web interface works the same
way.  I can hit 'abc-list' on any of the vdomains (provided it exists on
them) and it would be a different list.

    Another solution would be to tell your webserver to serve mailman
through www.foo.com if mailman only knows about foo.com.  Set a pass
through proxy.
