Re: About SSL peek-n-splice/bump configurations

I reply to myself due to a bounce and I have to re-enable the membership to list at least 3 times at month. 
Maybe a problem with Yahoo.

OK, that is what makes me a noise, and therefore I asked about what you said.

I think that I made a mistake in above sentence. 
I have should said "(..) Squid has to do 2 loops at inner while he is at the main loop (at SslBump1)"

Well, I am guessing because many things are not completely clear to me and/or easy to understand, at all. I am new in TLS filtering.
For example I never would think that in the given example, the second rule (sitesCD) will not never be checked later.
I asked or write that example with the inner loop in mind; I'm sorry.

Its good to know.

That's what I imagined you meant (and worried too) -without any kind of knowledge-. And now you have just confirmed it. 
So things become a little more delicate. 
And *now* I understand why you have done so much emphasis saying: "If the rule match..."

Thank You.
