Thanks for the datapoints. I'm new to mailinglists, mailman
esp'ly, so don't understand the comment entirely. Is he saying
that I can, via the web (http://sage.thought.org/mailman/listinfo)
create a virtual host? grepping -r thru the code, I can see
where my FQDN is. Hardcoded. (sage is my webserver.) Seems
like hardcoding it either in Defaults or in mm_cfg is the better
way of adding new mappings.
Oh: {virt ":" real "," virt ":" real} is syntax I didn't know of.
