Thanks - that helps.

A couple of follow-up questions:

Should I escape the periods in HTTP_HOST?

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.example\.com$

I assume that if I DO NOT escape them, then I would also match:

wwwXexample.com

or

www.exampleYcom

or both.

Also, what do you think about the value of rewriting urls without the "www"?

RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.example\.com$
RewriteRule (.*) http://example.com/$1 [R=Permanent]


Thanks for the help!
