Yeah, sounds about right. For my small installation of 5 mailing lists and 
20 domains, and when I set up each list personally, I just make sure there 
are no conflicting names - if there are then they choose another one but 
it's never happened yet. Not likely to either, in such a small setup :)

Hence it works well, despite mailmans other faults (like being very picky 
over permissions and stuff)
