It depends on which browser and which site, but with MSN we're getting
'connection reset' on Firefox and 'page cannot be displayed' on IE.
With gmail we can log in but when we click on an inbox message using
Firefox, 'loading...' is displayed but it just hangs there; with IE we
get 'page cannot be displayed.' With Yahoo mail we can log in and read
and compose messages, but get a blank page after pressing 'send.'

There's nothing in cache.log related to the problem.

Here are some examples from Gmail:
11/Oct/2006:16:23:07 +0700.740 212 xxx.yyy.24.34 TCP_MISS/204 240
GET http://www.google.com/setgmail? - DIRECT/64.233.189.104 text/html
11/Oct/2006:16:23:08 +0700.687 1038 xxx.yyy.24.34 TCP_MISS/200 385
GET http://chatenabled.mail.google.com/mail/images/cleardot.gif? -
DIRECT/64.233.163.189 image/gif
Those are the only lines that show up when we click on a message in the inbox.

This always works with both browsers. Also works if we set the
browser's proxy settings to point directly to Squid.

When signing into gmail using elinks from the cache, I get 'The page
you requested is invalid.'
Hotmail gives a message about javascript; I couldn't figure out how to
enable it in elinks.

I tried:

But it looks like the content length is one byte off?
