Redirect Rule from WWW to Unique URL

I am unable to train our customers to stop using WWW in front of their url so I wanted to write a rule to redirect them, but I need some help with the syntax.     I'm trying to do the following....
application delivery
dev
devops

But, I'll be happy to explain a bit.

 

 

Basically, the substr command returns the string in question, starting at the offset given. So, that command should return the htt_host, starting at the fourth character.

 

 

This should turn www.x.domain.com into x.domain.com, since it skips the "www.".
