And that's not a problem with htaccess. On my mainstream blog with an empty htaccess I get the same redirection problem.

I have to investigate with my host about the httpd server settings.

I have htaccess redirect in my every site to redirect non www to www. Multiple platforms, including Wordpress, so I don't think that is the problem in here. Or maybe the problem is that you don't have htaccess redirect (done seo wise)?

Also, you can choose in google webmaster tools that your site prefers www, so that google knows that it is the address to use and prevents duplicate content penalties.
