The hostname "domain1.com" is NOT matched by wildcard "*.domain1.com" (this 
only matches subdomains), so it gets served by the default virtual host. Since 
you don't have an explicit definiton of the default vhost, it's the first one 
(most likely, alphabetically). In your case, the default one is 
"*.domain2.com".

Solution: add "domain1.com" and "domain2.com" server names to your config.
