[imp] virtualhost,apache,virtual domain

Haha, ok here is what I found out.
Apache has a little thing called 'UseCanonicalName'
By default it is set to UseCanonicalName On
Set it to UseCanonicalName Off if you are trying to do what I am doing.  IMP 
sends a redirect and apache looks to the SERVER_NAME as the answer to give back 
to the client and that screws with the original domain name if what the client 
typed in is different than the SERVER_NAME variable or the ServerName parameter 
in httpd.conf.

Thank you guys for commenting well, otherwise I would not have found this!
It is not hard for someone who knows the code but I know grep, thank you once 
again.
