Make sure email settings actually forgets the old domain name, raq's seem
to forget to do this occasionally (accept mail for domain). Check for
cgi's on web sites with embedded info....Check rollover on web logs, or
trash the old web logs ...

Other than that, usually not all that horrible to just change the name,
changing the ip address is more of a pain ;)
