Search for the Apache VirtualHost directive and how to use it
to set up virtual hostnames. THis has nothing to do with NeoMail
as such.

BTW, this is exactly how my server is set up.

Here's a sample VirtualHost block from httpd.conf.
Your specific config may vary slightly - not all the
directives below are mandatory.

<VirtualHost *>
    AddHandler cgi-script pl
    DirectoryIndex neomail.pl
    DocumentRoot /usr/local/apache/cgi-bin
    ServerName webmail.domain.name
    ErrorLog logs/webmail.domain.name-http-error.log
    CustomLog logs/webmail.domain.name-http-access.log common
</VirtualHost>


Of course, you need to create your DNS record(s) first.
