Reading your question again. For webmail services using your browser (or outlook client configured for webmail) HTTP is used, not IMAP/POP/SMTP/etc.. If you have problems accessing such services then make sure your browser and/or email client is configured to use the proxy. If there is still problems, please tell us a little more about your setup and what errors you receive. Also check your cache.log for any strange messages. Note: If you are inside a firewall requiring the use of a parent proxy then see the Squid FAQ for proper Squid configuraion. Regards Henrik
