List robots are like Apache virtual hosts -- they allow you to use one physical server running one instance of Sympa and WWSympa to act as a
ailing list manager for multiple sites with different email addresses and a different URL.


hmmm... my big question related to this is:

Can I use ONE Webinterface, says lists.example.net for MANY mail domains like

lists.example.net
listdomain2.test
domain3.test

and so one. If yes, how have sympa.conf and the robots.conf (directory names?)
to be configured?

Or is ONE Webinterface restricted to ONE "maildomain"?

Normal usage is to define a dns domain and host for each virtual robot in sendmail and apache. So the basic answer is no, you have to define a virtual host papache for each virtual robot. However, you can change the domain of a particular list using the parameter 'host' of the list (admin > edit list config > list definition) .
In such case the list will output email address according to that parameter but will be managed via the web interface where she was created.
