Same thing for me Leed. I have actually brought this problem up before and I don't remember what the end results were lol. But I find it really weird why that would not have a redirect, besides 2 minutes ago I couldn't tell you the last time I typed
www.whateverwebsite.com instead of whateverwebsite.com. It was probably around the first time we ever got the internet in my house like 15 years ago.
