You could either redirect to www.mysite.com, or rewrite the request before it's sent to the pool and not send a rediret back to the client.

Redirect:


when HTTP_REQUEST {
   if { HTTP::host starts_with "mysite" }{
      HTTP::redirect http://www.mysite.com/[HTTP::uri]
   }
}

Or you could rewrite the request and send it to the pool:


when HTTP_REQUEST {
   if { HTTP::host starts_with "mysite" }{
      HTTP::host www.mysite.com
   }
}
