I did this as suggested, but not sure if I did it
right. I left the variable "$interface_address" just
like it was, placed my first domain's IP in
"first.domain's.ip.address" and placed the first
domain's name in "first.domain.com", and placed the
second domain's name in "second.domain.com

(first.domain's.ip.address}{second.domain's.ip.address}}

I left the variable as they were and placed the name
of my first domain in "first.domain.com"

What happens is that I see in the headers the name of
the second domain regardless of what domain I send
from. The second domain still shows the host name,
which is the name of the first domain.
