Okay. You didn't followup on my previous point, but that may mean that it
doesn't work on your platform. :) ``Does it work to simply setuid the
qmailadmin cgi, wherever it is actually located, and forego the explicit
suEXEC User/Group statements?''

Then I think you want cgipath to be ``/qmailadmin/cgi-bin/qmailadmin''.

I was assuming you would be using IP-based, NOT name-based, virtual hosting.
Is this not an option? (Even if you don't have another IP address to burn,
you might be able to do it with mod_rewrite or mod_proxy and setting up your
virtual servers on loopback addresses. But that's another HUGE can of worms.
