Hello Tek, Thank you for your help, actually I meant private webmails like my company's one that has the central exchange server in the head office taking in consideration that my network is not a subnet from their network, hotmail is running normally, Yahoo, Gmail .... etc. I am still beginner in this field but I could tell you that the proxy itself is acting as a firewall, no specific protocol filtration and here is the acl for the SSL port: acl SSL_ports port 443 563 http_access deny CONNECT !SSL_ports acl Safe_ports port 443 563 # https, snews http_access deny !Safe_ports The machine hosting the squid is directly connected to the router, as I mentioned before it is the firewall also and no ACL are there! No it is not running in the transparent mode! Before deploying the SQUID, this webmail was normally opening. When trying to access a specific webmail like http://mailhost.ccc.com.om/mail it is giving the following: Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage Most likely causes: You are not connected to the Internet. The website is encountering problems. There might be a typing error in the address. What you can try: Check your Internet connection. Try visiting another website to make sure you are connected. Retype the address. Go back to the previous page ...... let my upgrade it then I will feed you back. thank you so much. regards, Simsam HIJJAWI Tek Bahadur Limbu <teklimbu@xxxxxxxxxxxx> 09/05/2007 04:44 PM To shijjawi@xxxxxxxxx cc <squid-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject Re: webmails are not accessible - SQUID 2.5.STABLE12 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi Simsam, On Wed, 5 Sep 2007 15:12:58 +0400 shijjawi@xxxxxxxxx wrote: > Hello all, > > I have SQUID 2.5 server implemented on SUSE linux enterprise 10. > No access lists are there, the http traffic has no problems. > > I could not access any webmail!

Most of them use HTTPS. What's your ACL for SSL_ports? Are you running Squid in transparent mode? Also are you filtering traffic with some kind of firewall? Do you have an parent cache or a firewall in front of your squid box? What error message does your Squid cache give you when you try to access webmails? What does cache.log and access.log say? Try accessing webmails such as myway.com with and without secure mode and check if you can access it's webmail with HTTP and HTTPS. > > Is it a common issue? Please advise. It's not a common issue. I can't imagine what thousands of clients will say if they can't access the webmail service of Hotmail and Yahoo! And there are thousands of other webmail sites. I would also recommend you to upgrade to the latest version of Squid which is 2.6.STABLE14 currently. You can find the source package from the link below: http://www.squid-cache.org/Versions/v2/2.6/squid-2.6.STABLE14.tar.gz Hope it helps.
