 are you getting confused between apache virtual site aliases and dns
records?
It possible that you just need to turn off the "automatic dns" option in
each site and do it manually through the network services/dns menu.

You need an "A" record for woi.com which points to www.woi.com
You need an "MX" record for woi.com which points to mail.woi.com

Put your email users in the mail.woi.com site, and your web pages in the
woi.com.
Hope this helps
