Add option to redirect webmail subdomain to hostname instead of origin domain name
Needs Feedback
This is currently working for domain.tld/webmail, domain.tld/whm and domain.tld/cpanel, and with behavior selectable in Tweak options | Redirection, but has no effect for subdomains webmail.domain.tld, whm.domain.tld and cpanel.domain.tld.
Thanks for all the feedback! I'll make sure that the next time we touch this system we keep this in mind, as well as this other, related redirect request:

To get a consitent way of accessing all services I would like to point out that access webmail via the hostname and a wildcardcert without noncommon ports would be a good start. A redirection to these proxydomains of the host would provide customers without the own certs a way to access webmail too. Since EXIM,Dovcecot and Courier are still unable to use certs of the customer account they have to use the hostname anyway.

What about redirecting webmail.domain to the hostname? Do we have a feature for this as well?

I've votee for this feature too. It wiuld be nice to webmail.userdomain redirect to webmail.hostname as well as cpanel.userdomain redirect to cpanel.hostname thus removing all issues related to not having an ssl cert. A host can just buy a single wildcard cert to protect all of these subdomains accross all of its servers, using sni to remove the need of an extra ip address.

We have installed a wild card ssl to our domain name.
After that no webmail.dmain will work it goes to root
We feel that a feature to add a wild card cert is needed to just root
that then allows all subs to be ssl and remove all complications.

I have an SSL certificate for my hostname.
My config in WHM is:
Always redirect to SSL from Off: On.
Require SSL from: Off
If my client open: domain.tld/webmail , then redirect to SSL with hostname, no certificate error
If my client open: webmail.domain.tld , then go to webmail without SSL.
if in WHM the configuration was:Always redirect to SSL from Off: On.
Require SSL from: On
If my client open: domain.tld/webmail , then redirect to SSL with hostname, no certificate error.
If my client open: webmail.domain.tld , then go to webmail with SSL, no hostname and SSL certificate error.

I'm going through some of our historical requests, and I wanted to clarify this one a bit.
The request doesn't seem to indicate a goal for the desired behavior. Is the problem the SSL mismatch error when navigating to https://webmail.domain.tld? Proxy-subdomains typically are used to avoid using the webmail and cPanel ports, which means redirecting to the hostname:port would negate the usefulness of proxy-subdomains.
