Ken,
I don't know what's involved (I'm not very good with C), but as an
experiment, write a little routine to dump the entire environment to the
browser (similar to what phpinfo() does in php3/4). You'll likely see more
than one variable that you might be able to make use of.
In short, yes. If you have multiple virtual hosts bound to a single IP, you
should be able to use the HTTP_HOST env var to pre-populate the domain field
(might need to work with it though... the domain might be foo.com while the
host is www.foo.com or mail.foo.com).
Enjoy,
