I have solved my problem by adding lists.domain.com as a CNAME to host.domain.com in DNS. Then I was able to connect to http://lists.domain.com and new mailing lists were created with the proper settings. No need to use 'add_virtualhost'. Sorry to have bothered you; hopefully this mail helps someone in the future to solve his/her problems when he/she looks it up in the mail archives. /rolf ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
