Deleting a domain involves a lot more actions than just simply removing the 
reference to it, and I'm afraid I haven't gone through the motions of making 
it happen.

These would be considered domain aliases. Create a domain or edit an existing 
domain, and click the + to add domain aliases.

Perhaps the documentation can help you out here:

US/Kolab_Groupware/3.0/html/Administrator_Guide/chap-Administrator_Guide-
Hosted_Kolab_Groupware_Setup.html

If Provider, Inc. were to set up Hosted Kolab for organization "Kolab Systems 
AG" and as a demo for the Kolab community, things would look as follows:

- Management domain: provider.com (dc=provider,dc=com)

- Primary hosted domain: demo.kolab.org (dc=demo,dc=kolab,dc=org)

  This would be the domain that is open to registration for the public.

- Hosted domains: demo.kolab.org, kolabsys.com.

  Obviously kolabsys.com would not be open to the public ;-)
