Re: What to put into .htaccess to (re)direct incoming traffic to ...
Are you using Chrome?
If so, clean your Chrome cache, because Chrome caches redirects (it took away a few hours of my life the first time I figured that out).

%&%$%#&
Thanks @maniqui … your my savior … for today … ;-)
But … can you do one more trick? Now the url in the browserwindow of the redirect is: http://www.marijevijselaar.nl/www.duodyade.nl/ … can that be fixed to only www.duodyade.nl?

You mean, to remove the trailing slash?
Being that it’s a real directory, you may want to check if this Apache directive works for you:
httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_dir.html#directoryslash
Not sure exactly how it’s used.
You may want to try by creating (or using the existing one, if any) an .htaccess inside the /www.duodyade.nl/ folder and putting something like this:
DirectorySlash OffOr
<Location />
DirectorySlash Off
</Location>Or
<Directory />
DirectorySlash Off
</Directory>To see if any of those works. Check that it doesn’t break other stuff, particularly inside the duadyade website.
This may also be achieved by some rewrite rules, but being that this is a real folder, I’m not sure if rewrite rules will take effect/precedence over the DirectorySlash directive.

No … isn’t it possible that although the real url path is: www.marijevijselaar.nl/www.duodyade.nl … the browser only shows www.duodyade.nl … ??

No.
Or better said: that’s not a task to be done via rewrite rules. I see the advice you got in SO, but I’m not sure if the [P] flag will work in this situation. Also, that solution from SO requires mod_proxy enabled, so you should check first with your hosting company to know if that module is available to you.
That said, what you are trying to do is easier to be done if one of this:
- you can configure the DocumentRoot for www.duodyade.nl to be
/path/to/marijevijselaar/www.duodyade.nl/. This may be doable from the hosting’s control panel. If the website is hosted a cheap shared hosting this kind of setup is usually not possible, but you will have to check. - host the duodyade.nl website in another hosting account (it could be on the same hosting).
