updates.mozilla.org does not have a dns entry, but I think it should redirect
like update.mozilla.org does, to the https://addons.mozilla.org/ address.
This is only a minor enhancement, but for people entering the update url
manually, I'm sure this is a common error. Although the website itself is named
'Mozilla Update', people go there looking for updates, not update.
I do not think this would be difficult to fix.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to http://update.mozilla.org/
2. Go to http://updates.mozilla.org/

Actual Results:  
1. Redirects to https://addons.mozilla.org/
2. DNS Error

Expected Results:  
1. Redirects to https://addons.mozilla.org/
2. Redirects to https://addons.mozilla.org/
