This duplicates the preceding add_virtualhost() because the literal
domain names are the same as the values of DEFAULT_URL_HOST and
DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST.

If some lists are in the 'lists.domain.com' domain, there should be

add_virtualhost('someotherweb.domain.com', 'lists.domain.com')

If all lists are in the 'lists.domain.com' domain, you should have

DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST = 'lists.domain.com'
DEFAULT_URL_HOST = 'web.domain.com'
add_virtualhost(DEFAULT_URL_HOST, DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST)

Its in the section "Existing versus new lists". It's also in other FAQs
such as <http://wiki.list.org/x/mIA9>.

Is there a Mailman ScriptAlias that applies to the 'domain.com' domain?

Can you get to http://web.domain.com/mailman/admin ?

what about

  /usr/lib/mailman/bin/mailmanctl restart

or maybe

  service mailman restart

if you have an init.d script?
