I haven't started on the virtusertable yet, but the rest is just what's
needed (plus an MX record in the DNS).

As for mailman, after creating a list, just edit the "Host name this list

lists on all hosts share the same namespace, you are OK.  Otherwise, there
are hints for installing mailman multiple times.)
