isn't the whole point that cobalt users are not supposed to care, or even know, that they have a mailserver, that it has a name, or that they can choose what that name is? they just get email.
in my opinion, which is awaited with great excitement, anyone who wants to change the domain of their mailserver is not a cobalt user: just a person who bought a raq, for whatever reason. you can't have a helpful gui and complete freedom of action, and unless you're on rails, you're bound to run into the edge of the gui at exactly the wrong moment.
put webmin on it, close port 81 and live happily in vi ever after. better subscribe to bugtraq, though...
best will
