I know this question was just asked, but the solution didn't work for me. I am running an email server with web interface on port 8080. On the same server, I have four sites running from apache on port 80. I want my users to be able to type in the address webmail.domain.com and get redirected to How can I do this? I tried using a virtual host, but when I type in webmail.domain.com, my browser returns "Remote server not found". I have registered webmail.domain.com with my DNS server also. So, what can I do?
 
Ok, I'm an idiot. I got it to work. I just didn't wait long enough after I entered the A record into my DNS provider. It works perfectly now. If anyone is interested, I just set up a virtualhost for "webmail.*.*", and then just put a "Redirect / in. That way seems a little easier than the other methods I have seen used here.
