Thanks Amos for the details - I'll give Debian 8 with 3.3.8 a try, as soon as
I'm less busy.
The support team of the site confirmed me that they use a *non-transparent*
proxy. They further told me that they think my proxy had problems with https
as their login uses it.
Generally, my proxy has no problems with HTTPS connections - HTTPS is being
bypassed and so far there weren't problems with it.
If you open their portal page in your web browser, it is *not* HTTPS.
If you connect without proxy or with non-transparent proxy, the login works
and afterwards the page is still *not* HTTPS.
So, if just the credentials are being transferred in HTTPS, my assumption
would be that some kind of redirection function cannot handle this
HTTP/HTTPS-mixture.
The following are my IPTABLES rules:
Next, the squid.conf:
