The way you have set this up currently, english.mydomain.com does not
redirect to www.mydomain.com/english but simply maps this to a different
content root.

As long as you use relative links in the content only that will work
okay, but as soon as you have something like <a href="/">Home</a> this
will work differently on english.mydomain.com and www.mydomain.com.

If you want english.mydomain.com only as an alias, add

Redirect / http://www.mydomain.com/english/
