Thanks for that pointer. Now I found the offending rules, inside a
site-enabled file for my webmail virtual host:

<IfModule rewrite_module>
  <IfModule ssl_module>
    <Location />
      RewriteEngine on
      RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !^on$ [NC]
      RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^webmail [NC]
      RewriteRule . https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI}  [L]
    </Location>
  </IfModule>
</IfModule>

When I move those rules inside the <Virtualhost> tags, everything works.
I still don't understand how these rules could have caused this problem.
What do these rules have to do with symlinks for the /icons directory?

Thanks for the help!

Richard
