Course title: Network Security and Firewalls (Computer Science) Instructor: Stuart Williams, M.Sc., Canadian Mennonite University
Marvelous - that's my course, and our communications department got it onto this list I'm on before I did! I'm sure that must say much good about them and nothing bad about me. My excuse is a new baby boy.

Can anyone point me towards documentation for running majordomo on multiple domains that's written for real idiots? I've blundered through all the documentation I've found, and was unable to make it work. I've always given up in the past, but now I think I'd really like to get it going...
My RedHat 7.1 box has a handful of domains and virtual domains that I'd like the option of getting majordomo to work on for each domain/virtual domain that reflect the correct domain name.

I just did a Google search on "majordomo" and "virtual domains" and this came up at the top of the list...

Not a lot of detail to the documentation, but the example files they provide will hopefully help you in your setup.
Been there, done that. Now I'm looking for something that details it, as I'm unable to make mine work by hacking the examples there.

If you are starting over from ground zero then I highly recommend you consider Mailman.
http://www.gnu.org/software/mailman/
Aside from working fine with virtual domains and being much easier to configure in general, it also has a complete web interface for both admins and users which is substantially easier for the average user to handle than the strictly email interface that majordomo offers for sending commands like subscribe etc.
The web interface is clunky though so I still find the average user is utterly confused. I recommend stripping out _all_ options and just leaving them with an email field and a "subscribe" button.
