Hi Simsam, > 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 Is this your only http_access rule? That would mean you only allow https connections and no http connections. > 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: If you only allow https as mentioned above, that will always be denied. Do http connections to other servers work? > 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. This does not look like a Squid message denying access ... Please send all your ACL and http_access rules from squid.conf so that we can have a look.
