301 Redirects are not working

I have run into a problem with some redirects.

I’m using an SEO script that allows me to detect 404 errors, and then automatically add them to a 301 redirect. The plugin works great, however I have a bunch of redirects that start with the ? tag that the redirect software will not pick up on. An example of these is in the following —

?p=130
?p=166
?page_id=49
?p=250
?p=58

I figured, no big deal, I’ll just .htaccess 301 redirect them. However, for some reason, that didn’t work either. I spoke with some IT friends, and they think its a script within wordpress itself that isn’t allowing me to 301 redirect these specific codes, because standard systems don’t recognize the “?” tag.

Does anyone know how to redirect these pages properly?
