Your point is well taken, Sandy. However, having a canonical name of "mail.domain.com" for an IMail server raises issues (e.g., Reply-To:) that may be far more common and annoying than the situation you describe where you have two Web servers, IMail's Web Messaging and, say, IIS, both resolving to "domain.com" on the same box.
