Thanks, Danny.

I've never used rewrites before, but that looks like a good idea. But which of the two solutions would you prefer?

What is the downside of blocking port 80 entirely since mod_md doesn't need it?

Using my wife as an example, when looking for a site she usually doesn't specify http[s?] at all--she just clicks on what Google shows her.  [:-(
