The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

[Rance Hall <address@concealed>]

Back in August I sent a message to this list with some questions about a 
sympa server I inherited.

The server uses virtual domains.

Attached please find the script that the previous admin wrote to create 
new virtual domains.

This script is broken.

We found an error and fixed it reference the difference between user 
input $1 and the text value $1 which is needed in virtual domain setup.

We get the following error message when messages are sent with domains 
created by this script.

*******************************
Impossible to distribute your message for the following reason:


List '{virtualdomainlist}+owner' does not exist.

For further information, please contact listmaster@lists.{virtualdomain}

********************************

Ive tried walking through the documentation with this script and I'm 
missing something.

I should warn you that I can be a little dyslexic at times so I may have 
missed something easy.

Can you take a look at this script and see what issues it may have.

I see one already.  It doesn't check to make sure you entered a domain 
with the prefix "lists" before adding it on.  This creates a virtual 
domain of lists.lists.domain.org.
