IIS redirect preserve QueryString?

Question

I have a url:

http://mywebsite.com/Account/?Number=25191108&Name=Something&Remote=False

which I would like to redirect to:

http://anotherwebsite.com/whatever/

and preserve the query string:

http://anotherwebsite.com/whatever/?Number=25191108&Name=Something&Remote=False

Does anyone have any ideas how to achieve this?

1. Go into the IIS site properties for the domain you're moving from. In the "Home Directory" tab, click the option "A redirection to a URL"
2. In the Redirect to box, enter the domain you wish to move to (no trailing slash), plus $S$Q - for example, http://www.YourDomain.com$S$Q
3. Next, check the options that state the client will be sent to "The exact URL entered above", and "A permanent redirection for this resource"
