[imp] virtualhost

Is it possible for IMP 3.1 to be hosted on virtual host. I find long url
unfriendly for my users so I plan to use it straight from a host  like
http://webmail.abc.com instead of a long one like
http://www.abc.com/horde/imp or putting a link like
http://www.abc.com/webmail.  I've been skimming around the archive but
none of the related thread works for me, there is one very close
the "[imp] Apache/IMP httpd.conf help?" by Rick Compton, I tried his
example but it didn't work for me either. Here is my own configuration:

---httpd.conf----

ServerName xx.xx.xx.xx

NameVirtualHost xx.xx.xx.xx
<VirtualHost xx.xx.xx.xx>
   DocumentRoot /usr/local/apache/htdocs/horde/imp
   ServerName webmail.abc.com
   Alias /horde/ "/usr/local/apache/htdocs/horde"
   Alias /imp/ "/usr/local/apache/htdocs/horde/imp"
   DirectoryIndex index.php
   .
   .
 </VirtualHost>

(I tried putting the Alias outside VirtualHost directive too for the
main server to use, but no luck)

--registry.php---

 'webroot' => '/imp',
    'icon' => '/horde/imp/graphics/imp.gif',
    'name' => _("Mail"),
    'allow_guests' => true,
    'show' => true

I copied this from Rick's example but it didn't work, so I switched back
to my original configuration. The error says: 

The requested URL /imp/redirect.php was not found on this server.
everytime I go to webmail.abc.com

I've been on this for 2 days now, so if anyone is kind enough to lend a
help, I would appreciate it.

Thanks.
