Populating ListBoxfor with ViewModel and passing b

I am struggling to figure out how to pass back my model (unmodified) back to my controller. I have tried binding my ViewModel to many different HTML.Helpers and what not. I can get my data to bind and display, but I cannot get the ViewModel to post back to my controller.

I have the following ViewModels:

public class MediaProviderViewModel : ViewModelBase
{
    public int MediaProviderId { get; set; }
    public string MediaProviderName { get; set; }

    public static MediaProviderViewModel FromEntity(MediaProvider entity)
    {
        if (entity == null)
        {
            return (null);
        }
        return (new MediaProviderViewModel()
        {
            MediaProviderId = entity.MediaProviderId,
            MediaProviderName  = entity.Name,

        });
    }

    public static IEnumerable<MediaProviderViewModel> FromEntityList(IEnumerable<MediaProvider> entities)
    {
        return entities == null ? null : entities.Select(FromEntity).OrderBy(mp => mp.MediaProviderName);
    }
}


  public class SystemConfigViewModel : ViewModelBase
{
    [DisplayName("Media Providers")]
    public IEnumerable<MediaProviderViewModel> MediaProviders { get; set; }

    public SystemConfigViewModel()
    {
    }

    public static SystemConfigViewModel FromEntity(Entities db)
    {
        return new SystemConfigViewModel()
            {
                MediaProviders = MediaProviderViewModel.FromEntityList(db.MediaProviders)
            };
    }    
}

Controller:

public class SystemConfigController : CommonBaseController
{
    //
    // GET: /SystemConfig/

    public ActionResult Index()
    {
        SystemConfigViewModel model = SystemConfigViewModel.FromEntity(_db);
        return View(model);
    }

    [HttpPost]
    public ActionResult Index(SystemConfigViewModel model)
    {

        return View(model);
    }

View:

<html>
  <body>
    @using (Html.BeginForm("Index", "SystemConfig"))
    {    
        @Html.ListBoxFor(model => model.MediaProviders, new SelectList(Model.MediaProviders, "MediaProviderId", "MediaProviderName"), new { @size = "30" })       
    }
  </body>
</html>

I have tried iterating through the items and indexing them like such:

//Surrounded in a for loop with different helpers

model => model.MediaProviders[i].MediaProviderId

Still nothing is passed back. Could I get some help as to what I am doing wrong? I tried googling but nothing really of value popped up for my case.

You should include an additional property in you view model to bind the selected values to (and changing the MediaProviders to a SelectList would also make it easier)

public class SystemConfigViewModel : ViewModelBase
{
  public IEnumerable<int> SelectedProviders { get; set; } //bind to this    
  public SelectList MediaProviders { get; set; } // populate this in the controller
}

Then in the view

@Html.ListBoxFor(m=> m.SelectedProviders , Model.MediaProviders, new { @size = "30" })

When you post back, the SelectedProviders property will contain the ID's (MediaProviderId) of the selected items.
