I don't believe this will work, as you still need /sympasoap and 
/static-sympa, not to mention things like /cgi-bin.  You can't allocate / 
(and everything under it) to just one of these.

The way we achieve useability is just to have a redirect set up so that 
/index.html --> /sympa

You could also set up some RedirectMatch rules so that ANY URL other than 
^/(sympa|static-sympa|sympasoap) gets redirected to /sympa if you want.  We 
have some rather complex rules that map the URLs used in MailMan to their 
corresponding URLs in Sympa, for the benefit of migration and bookmarked 
archive URLs from beforehand.

The only time I can see you'd want to do this is so that the default page is 
/sympa, and a redirect set up in / can achieve that.  From then onwards 
everything is under /sympa.

If for some reason you don't want the name 'sympa' in there, you can redefine 
this to be something else like /list but it seems more trouble than it's 
worth.
