This may be an antifeature if someone's environment has a host on the LAN named amazon.

Note the trailing ., it's an FQDN. Your system/application shouldn't use search domains if provided a fqdn.

hence under a properly set up DNS and application: system with search domain for `.internal` and a host named `amazon` will be hit the internal host for `https://amazon` and `https://amazon.internal` but not `https://amazon.`
