Subject: problem while downloading files as attachment
Hi everybody,
I'm Camillo Bongiovanni, from Italy, just subscribed to the ML and already
with a problem... ;)
Well, I installed SqWebMail configuring it to work ONLY with a secure link
under the HTTPS protocol.
Everything went good until I received a message with an attachment I had to
download; then I realized that something was not (I guess) correctly
configured, since I COULD NOT DOWNLOAD THE ATTACHMENT AT ALL!
Any attempt was frustrated by a message like
Host not available or not found. Please try again later.
(please excuse my english, I tried to translate from italian as good as I
can)
NOTE:
1. This happens ONLY with IE, Netscape seems to do its work nicely (well,
it DOES)
2. It does NOT seem to be a "localization" problem: MSIE behaves the same
way even if I set the "English" language
3. It seems that MSIE tries to "get some information" about the file it has
to download and in such a circumstance it stops
4. I don't know if this would happen under a "normal" HTTP connection,
since I only have HTTPS (security stuffs, ya know... ;)
Any idea?
Faithfully
Saluti
