I gave up subscribing in digest mode for all my mailing lists for the

Yes, just copy the web directory into their virtual domain directory and it will use
that. Then they can change the look as they wish for their site. Make sure you just
copy the the entire web directory. It should be as follows.

web
Grant Griffith
If you do this (use alias for OHN) on the Primary IP address of the computer
(the first IP of the first NIC), then you MUST add an entry in your
\winnt\system32\drivers\etc\hosts file with IP of machine and the 'alias'
(domain.com) name, or IMail will not be able to resolve that name.
