Re: [squid-users] Exchange Server 2007 + Outlook 2007 + Squid Proxy

Not really on topic for squid now but...

My setup being different I cant really add much to help you here, other than I would have thought NOT passing your requests through a proxy server if it's your own internal mail servers is the way to go. Send it direct to your CASs.

Example: have isa in a DMZ forwarding the autodiscover.domain, OWA etc for your mail.domain for external and a split horizon internal DNS. Clients within your LAN use internal dns servers to resolve the above and hence using a PAC file to say 'if my mail.domain send direct' and don't use proxy.

As for the prompting for external HTML that sounds like a browser/auth issue. I don't see that for my ie users. Macs however are a different matter...

If IE doesn't have the proxy set then no images are shown in the email. It's only html email that pull images from the web. AFAIK there's no way around this other then allowing users to bypass the proxy, which kinda defeets the purpose.
