Publishing Exchange 2010 with TMG, redirect / ?

I have published OWA 2010 via a Forefront TMG and a trusted certificate, and users can now access our mail from any external site via

https://mail.comanyname.se/owa

But, i would like to be able to redirect so they land in the correct place by just stating

https://mail.companyname.se/

if I could do http://mail.companyname.se/ and redirect to the https it would be even better.

This SEEM like an easy fix, but i am confused.

Is this a web publish rule or access rule? I cannot seem to find a "redirect" option?
yes it is a publishing rule

when creating it in action pick "Deny" and finish creating it

then go back and edit the rule, in the action tab you will find a redirect option

Partial success.

entering http://mail.companyname.com -> generated 403 message

entering https://mail.companyname.com -> takes user to login form (yay), but the login template is broken designwise (but _works_ and user can log in).

Akhater: HTTP is enabled on the listener.

busbar: I tried that as well, and that gives me a 403 error
busbar solution will not work unless you allow all paths to reach your exchange server. if you prefer to do it his method I can walk you through it.

can u give me a screenshot of the error ? if the listener is enabled for http and https it should work
then you can reach the default IIS page using http://mail.domain.se, if so you can use the javascrip method, create an empty index.htm page and place the code inside it and save it in inetpub/wwwroot
busbar what I mean is that his current TMG rule is NOT forwarding requests to "/" to the exchange server. It should be modified on ISA before it can work
sorry Akhter, i need a refresh as well :), Yes you are right, if he used the same Exchange pbulishing rule you need to modify the path tab to allow the requests for /* then try again
