Question Force ssl in squirrelmail


Hi,

I have my squirrelmail up and running and my ssl certs installed and working for my site. I am using apache as my webserver. But here is what I want:

when someone types in http://domain.com/mail they get redirected to https://domain.com/mail

I am trying to figure out the mod_rewrite command in apache but just cannot figure it out.

Thanks in advance,
Steve

I've done that. You need to add three virtual hosts in Apache's httpd.conf file; one for www.domain.com, one for webmail.domain.com:80 and anotherone for webmail.domain.com:443. When they try http://webmail.domain.com it will redirect it to https://webmail.domain.com. You can do it with Apache's Redirect command. Make sure that your certs contain the name of the page or it'll prompt about it every time.
