    Maybe something like this...

    when HTTP_RESPONSE {
if { ([HTTP::status] equals "404") } {
    HTTP::respond 404 content " "
    }
}

Sorry, it didn't like the html tags. Anyway, you could send the 404 back to the client that includes an html redirect such as meta http-equiv=refresh content=0;url=[destination_url]

You'll need to add all the opening and closing html tags, such as... html head meta http-equiv=refresh content=0;url=[destination_url] head html
