[squid-users] POST method when using squid_kerb_auth and sending Yahoo mail attachment

Hello folks,

I'm using squid 3.1.11-1 on Ubuntu Server 11.  I am
using "/usr/lib/squid3/squid_kerb_auth" to auth against a Windows 2008
directory.

I am unable to upload attachments to emails when using the *new* Yahoo! Mail interface.  The old interface seems to work fine.

I've seen this problem reported around the internet.  These older posts reveals some insight:

I made a "POST_whitelist.txt" for  .yahoo.com and uploads work fine.  But this is an ugly workaround.

More recently, someone also experiencing this issue filed a Firefox bug.  But I'm quite sure it's not a Firefox issue:

Any better fix for this out there?

Thanks,
Hank
