First SERVER_NAME is apache internal NOT a http header sent with the
request thus will match ANY request. Use HTTP_HOST instead. You also need
to escape the dots in the host name.
Second, from the documentation:
"To combine new and old query strings, use the [QSA] flag."
so by using QSA you are modifying the query string adding another foo to it
thus the result you are seeing.
Finally, your rules should look like:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^foo\.mydomain\.com$ <http://foo.mydomain.com/>
RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$
RewriteRule /(.*) /foo/$1 [L]
