[Mutt]

I did this same thing a while ago but never wrote up any directions.

I used the edit thread option of postings.php so you'd have to start a thread then go into postings and edit it to enter the redirect url. It was very simple to add to postings. I used a redirect page to send you to the new url. the views hit counter still works. I made a simple cp script which lists all threads with redirects with edit links. that admins script can also be used to list all stickies, all threads with polls, and all news threads (another hack).

I'd be happy to write it up if you wanted it. I feel the need to contribute since I started using vbhacker. damn handy tool.
