That error message is being issued by the mail server software, not by the LISTSERV
software.  If you intend to host multiple domains on a single server, you must configure
the LISTSERV software, the mail server software, and the web server software to accept all
of the domain names.  If mail for your LISTSERV server is routed through other mail
servers before it reaches your LISTSERV server, those servers may also need configuration
changes so that they will properly route messages for the hosted domains.

Search the list archives for "virtual host"; you will find numerous posts, including
several with hints and tips on how to do what you're trying to do.
