[cobalt-users] majordomo only uses central dir

[Jonas Pasche <jonas@xxxxxxxx>]

hi everybody,

i've seen another interesting problem that i haven't found in the archives 
yet (even of they're full of majordomo questions and answers).

ok, it's a raq3. all updates installed, even the os-update-2.0 which should 
contain a majordomo bugfix, as cobalt told me.

normally, new mailinglists are created as 
/usr/local/majordomo/<www.domain.tld>/lists/<listname>.

this raq3 puts all lists directly into /usr/local/majordomo/lists. this is 
a big problem, because not only the lists are saved there, but the list of 
lists on a site is get from there. that means, if i create lists unter 
site1, site3 and site5, i can see _all_ lists (and even the site-adm list!) 
at site2 or site4, too. that's worse, don't you think?

i looked into majordomo.cf and found the following entry:

[...]
# $listdir -- Where are the mailing lists?
#
if ( defined $ENV{\"VIRTUAL\"}) {
     $listdir = \"$homedir/$ENV{\'FQDN\'}/lists\";
} else {
     $listdir = \"$homedir/lists\";
}
[...]

so i GUESS, the problem is that VIRTUAL is undefined. does anybody know 
where it is or should be defined? or do you know any other solution?

regards, jonas.
