[squid-users] Squid, Hotmail and Outlook Express

Hello everyone,

Some users are trying to access yours hotmail account via http access by outlook express.

Squid requires authentication.

OE does'nt has any field to insert login and password to access squid. Thus, I make two acls:

# login name of the users that need to access hotmail by OE
acl OE_USERS proxy_auth "/squid/etc/OE.users"

# address accessed by outlook to fetch emails - actually the url: http://services.msn.com/svcs/hotmail/httpmail.asp
acl HM_SERVER dstdomain .msn.com

allowing access:

http_access allow OE_USERS HM_SERVER

but OE still tells that squid is asking for a authenticated access.

what is wrong ?

Cheers,

--
