Thanks very much jole for that information - it is very helpful!

I tried out the OpenDNS system-- and yes, their proxy servers appear
to be stripping the Authorization headers being sent to the Calendar
data API.  I tried running a curl script to retrieve a calendar feed
using an authorization header correctly retrieved from clientlogin--
This does not work correctly (returns a 401) when using the host
returned for 'www.google.com' by the OpenDNS server
(google.navigation.opendns.com/208.67.219.230).  However, connecting
directly to a known IP (retrieved by looking up www.google.com from a
non-OpenDNS DNS server)-- the same request worked fine.  I have
contacted OpenDNS to see if they can look into the issue.

Kulvinder, Basia and Mark -- can any of your reports possibly be
related to using the OpenDNS DNS / proxy servers?

Thanks,

-Ryan
