Rubyb Posted September 25, 2006 Posted September 25, 2006 Hi TCH Family, Been redirecting some of my sites via metatags and would now like to use 301 in the .htaccess file. What affect, if any, will this have to my e-mail accounts? For example, let's say I'm redirecting www.spiceandsugar.com to a URL at homestead, but for various reasons, do not want to use homestead for e-mail or transfer my domain to their site. Will my regular e-mail accounts remain in place with TCH when I use the 301 redirect? Am hoping the answer is that everything for e-mail stays the same, but I couldn't find anything on this in my research. Thanks in advance for any assistance, Ruby Quote

abinidi Posted September 25, 2006 Posted September 25, 2006 Yeah 301 redirects are page-based redirects. Mail connects in a different way. So 301 redirects don't affect mail in any way. If you want to redirect mail, you have to use a different method. Welcome to the forums!! Quote
