[squid-users] can squid send out expired/stale content when running in accel mode and httpd_accel_host is not reachable?

Hi all,

If we assume all files delivered from squid (port 80 reverse proxy) have
a 15 minute expire, and the httpd_accel_host is down
for a hour, i guess the normal behaviour would be a timeout (the file in
cache is expired and will not be delivered) correct?

How is it possible to tell squid the following? -> Dear Squid, please
deliver stale/expired objects (better than nothing) when the
httpd_accel_host is down!
And continue to go back to normal, when httpd_accel_host is back up...

Anybody with some comments?
Would be great!Thx.
