[Mailman-Users] Mailman and Apache suEXEC with Virtual Hosts

I searched all the archives and FAQ. Has anyone solved the problem of getting Mailman 2.1 to run in a Virtual Host with Apache 1.3 suEXEC? Would it work to create a second Name-Based VirtualHost (mailman.domain.tld) for each IP-Based Domain (www.domain.tld) with the VirtualHost User.Group

I don't think those errors mean too much (unless you upgraded and it hasn't finished the upgrade...) If your MTA is Postfix, be sure that you have followed all the advise in the README.POSTFIX file. Specifically make sure that local bounces are not set to a 4xx error code (which means retry and
