Hi,

I have questions about using the virtual host with Mailman 2.1.5 on RHEL 3.
For example the hostname of my mailing server is land.its.org. I created an
DNS alias that is named mailman.its.org. Then I did as follows:

$ nslookup mailman.its.org
mailman.its.org    canonical name = land.its.org
Name: land.its.org
Address: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
$ vi mm_cfg.py
DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST = 'mailman.its.org'
DEFAULT_URL_HOST = 'mailman.its.org'
add_virtualhost(DEFAULT_URL_HOST, DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST)
$ bin/withlist -l -r fix_url test -v
$ bin/mailmanctl restart

I added the virtual host of mailman.its.org on Apache. The URL of
http://mailman.its.org/mailman/admin/test is working. 

I also can send the emails from the members of test list to
test at mailman.its.org. But the members of test list received the emails still
from land.its.org, not mailman.its.org. The mail header didn't change from
land.its.org to mailman.its.org. I want any email will use the alias name of
mailman.its.org, not land.its.org. Does anyone know how to resolve it? 

Thanks for your help.
Hong
