Since I have just installed Mailman 2.1 to finally replace our
over-aged majordomo, I can jump in on this one.

Mailman 2.1 still does not fully support virtual domains. You can have
multiple virtual hosts, and have only lists from domain
foo.example.com show up in the web interface for foo.example com.
Lists use the correct mail addresses from the right virtual hosts for
outgoing mail, but if you have list-a@??? and
list-b@??? on the same Mailman installation, e-mail sent
to list-a@??? will be treated the same way as e-mail sent
to list-a@???. As a corollary, you can't have lists with
the same name in different virtual domains.

You can, however, have separate installations of Mailman on the same
box to have complete virtuality, but that's more ugly IMO.
