So will this

I know it will match
Blah.redshift3d.com and redshift3d.com
But what about
Blah.Blah.redshift3d.com
It will also match, for the same set of reasons.
FWIW, I am worried that you keep asking about specific basic matching
examples. If necessary, you can test such matches online[1] or using
something like "grep -E" (not to mention Squid itself). The answers here
will vary in quality and will usually not cover what you really want to
know -- what input the regular expression will (not) match besides your
specific examples. Have you tried reading regular expression tutorials
and using tools[1] that explain the meaning of specific regular
expressions? There ought to be a better way to learn how regular
expressions work!
[1] For example: regexr.com/7gms6

Correction: A regular expression "." does _not_ match "nothing" (i.e.
zero characters).
In some contexts, "." may not even match some special single
characters,
but those contexts are probably not applicable to this thread scope.

Same "nothing" correction here.
