subdomain - mail.DOMAIN.com

[KuJaX]

anyway to setup a subdomain for like

mail.domain.com

to point to

http://www.domain.com/squirrelmail

?

You could change the mail dns record and setup another domain as your subdomain (mail.domain.com). Then using the Site Redirection feature, have it forward

/
to
http://www.domain.com/squirrelmail

Or a better way might be to remove the mail dns records, create a virtualhost for your mail.domain.com in the httpd.conf with a redirect in it. Although removing the mail (mx) records would basically disable pop3 mail access.

well, i dont want to lose pop3 access! ohhh well, i'll just type squirrelmail for the few times I use the webmail.

I'm not sure if this is possible but you might be able to do the redirects using a virtualhost for port 80 and somehow get the same subdomain to respond to the pop3 port. Haven tried it

isn't it possible to add an alias to the httpd.conf that points a URL to squirrelmail?

Alias /mail/ /path/to/squirrelmail/

Then, to get to squirrelmail, you use http://domain.name/mail
