Hello list, I just started to play with polipo, it's very good!
Tinyproxy [1] has a nice feature/option named BindSame: "If this boolean parameter is set to yes, then Tinyproxy will bind the outgoing connection to the IP address of the incoming connection that triggered the outgoing request.", from tinyproxy.conf(5) [2]. A quick look at the code [3] shows that indeed server remembers the IP to which client connected to and uses it in a bind() just before connect() for outgoing connections. This feature is useful when the proxy server has multiple IP addresses: depending on which one you connect to, you exit with a different proxy IP. What would you think of adding this feature to polipo? I guess the workaround right now would be to use multiple polipo instances bound on the different IPs.
