The comment before explains:

# Set up your virtual host mappings here.  This is primarily used for the
# thru-the-web list creation, so its effects are currently fairly limited.
# Use add_virtualhost() call to add new mappings.  The keys are strings as
# determined by Utils.get_domain(), the values are as appropriate for
# DEFAULT_HOST_NAME.

...so:

VIRTUAL_HOMES={'foo.thought.org': 'realname.thought.org', 'bar.thought.org': 
'realname.thought.org'}

...where realname is the hostname of the listserver machine running Mailman. 
You can probably use regexs like '*.thought.org' as a key, too.
