proxypass question

I am trying to setup a dmz webserver to access my mail server behind the
fire.  I have this in my http.conf file:

<VirtualHost dmz.server.com>
 	ServerName email.internal.com
	ProxyRequests on
	ProxyPass /webmail/ http://email.internal.com:180/
	ProxyPassReverxe /webmail/ http://email.internal.com:180/
	ProxyVia on
</VirtualHost>

when I enter http://dmz.server.com/webmail/  I get my login screen.  I enter
my id and password and click continue, the browser gives me url not found.
This url is in the browser:
http://dmz.server.com/en/mail.html?sid=sfdefrafefwe&lang=en&cert=false I can
edit the url in the browser to add webmail as in:
http://dmz.server.com/webmail/en/mail.html?sid=sfdefrafefwe&lang=en&cert=fal
se and the browser will then display my email folders.

Am I missing something here?  How can I get the correct url to be returned
with webmail in it?

Don't use any absolute URLs on the target website.

The only other option is to root your reverse proxy at /, so that absolute
URLs resolve to the same thing on both servers.
