[squid-users] Add a prefix/suffix if a domain is not resolved?

Hello all,

I'm using Seamonkey without a proxy for general surfing at home and one
thing that I came to like is the fact that if I type in an address that
does not match any DNS record, it will try again by adding ".com" at the
end if it's not already there. Similarly, it will add "www." in front if
it's not already there.
When I'm on the move, I often use my own squid proxy to connect to the
internet and I loose this behavior because Squid replies with a "not
found" page whenever there was no DNS record associated with the URL.
Hence my question today:

Is it possible to tell Squid to retry the same query with a given suffix
or prefix if said prefix/suffix is not already in the URL?
If yes, how can this be done?

I looked around using various search engines, but I must say that I
could not find anything on this subject.

Thanks in advance for your help
Olivier
