whiteboxlinx.org runs on the same machine as beau.org. While you can run 
mail on the alternate domains, you hit problems.  Receiving mail addressed 
to whiteboxlinux.org would be trivial, having it originate from that name 
is harder.  A real sendmail wizard might be able to make mail originate 
from the correct IP but I haven't had any luck at it and in today's world 
of overly aggresive spam filtering, having mail from whiteboxlinux.org 
originate from an IP that reverses to beau.org would mean a lot of 
rejected mail.
