This looks like cPanel where the list posting address is [email protected], but the actual internal list name is i-have-mld_mldfamily.org. > These two don’t work: > RedirectMatch 301 http://mldfamily.org/i-have-mld(.*) > http://mldfamily.org/mailman/listinfo/i-have-mld_mldfamily.org/$1 > > Redirect 301 http://mldfamily.org/i-have-mld > http://mldfamily.org/mailman/listinfo/i-have-mld_mldfamily.org They don't work because the match is against the URL-path, not against the full URL. You want things like > RedirectMatch 301 /i-have-mld(.*) > http://mldfamily.org/mailman/listinfo/i-have-mld_mldfamily.org/$1 or > Redirect 301 /i-have-mld > http://mldfamily.org/mailman/listinfo/i-have-mld_mldfamily.org or even > RedirectMatch 301 /i-have-mld(.*) > /mailman/listinfo/i-have-mld_mldfamily.org/$1 or > Redirect 301 /i-have-mld /mailman/listinfo/i-have-mld_mldfamily.org but I don't think you'd ever really want the first of either pair. -- Mark Sapiro <[email protected]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
