[pfSense Support] Attachments very slow to download from Hotmail

2010-06-01 Thread Adam Egan
Hi all,

Odd problem.

Attachments take an AGE to download from Hotmail.

As far as I can tell it does not affect our POP3 mail or Google Mail.

I have pfSense 1.2.2 with squid running as a transparent proxy. No
fancy routing, just NAT.

MTU path discovery problem? are you blocking icmp?

pfSense 1.2.2 is very old and out of date.  Before anything else, 
upgrade.  Then look at this:

Upgrading to 1.2.3 seemed to cure the problem...

I will do some more testing and let the list know..

Any reason 1.2.2 would have a problem with hotmail?

No, but since literally thousands of bugs were fixed since 1.2.2, its 
entirely possible that whatever was actually causing the problem was 
fixed.

heh  more like a dozen, and I don't recall any specific to MSS
clamping or similar which sounds like the problem here, but could be
something specific to Squid and you always want to be on the latest
version.
