Good, you're on the right track.

Yeah, the httpd.conf snippet I mentioned is only part of what you'll need for it to work. This is what I would expect with just that snippet... you still have to tell it what you want to do with non-Zimbra web requests (ie, for curley.quickservice.com).

The entire thing you want to add would probably look something like the following:

NameVirtualHost *:80

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName curley.quirkservice.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/html
 <Directory /var/www/html>
    Options -Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews +ExecCGI
       AllowOverride All
     <IfModule mod_access.c>
       Order allow,deny
       Allow from all
     </IfModule>
 </Directory>

</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>

  # Servername is the domain name you want users to type into their
  # browser in order to connect to Zimbra
  ServerName mail.quirkservice.com

  # Pass every request off to Zimbra
  RewriteEngine           On
  RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://127.0.0.1:7070$1 [P]
  RewriteRule ^proxy:.* - [F]

  # On the way back, rewrite headers containing this domain name and port,
  # effectively hiding the port from the user
  ProxyPassReverse / http://mail.quirkservice.com:7070/

  ProxyPreserveHost On
</VirtualHost>

Sure, that makes sense.

Adding the above to your httpd.conf file should do that for you. It assumes that you'll be putting a webpage for curley.quirkservice.com in the directory /var/www/html/.

Have a good one,
