Hi.

I recently changed the website to one server, keeping the mail in the old server, so:

domain.com A IPNewServer
domain.com MX mail.domain.com
mail A IPOldServer
-----------------------------

webmail.domain.com -> OK
mail.domain.com -> OK
domain.com/webmail -> Redirects to domain.com:2096 on new server.

-----------------------------

So how can i redirect domain.com/webmail redirecting to old server email?

Thanks.

Best Regards.

Hi.

Thanks for pointing out.. i also find this useful:
tecadmin.net/add-custom-settings-in-whm-cpanel-apache-virtualhost/

Ended up doing this:
-For Apache 2.4, check Apache version and change 2_4 to Apache version
-Non SSL
Code:
mkdir -p /etc/apache2/conf.d/userdata/std/2_4/domain/domain.com/
cd /etc/apache2/conf.d/userdata/std/2_4/domain/domain.com/

nano extra.conf

ScriptAlias /webmail /home/domain/public_html/email/
ScriptAliasMatch ^/webmail/(.*) /home/domain/public_html/email/

/scripts/rebuildhttpdconf
service httpd restart
