I have been disappointed in this level of responsiveness, and looks
like I'd better switch to something older and mature like Squid or
switch to Nginx, where features may be limited, but at least is stable
and one knows how to work within the software's limitations.
I just do not understand the criteria for responding to user's questions!
Goodbye,
I'm sorry to hear that we weren't the right solution. Both Squid and
Nginx are excellent products, and hopefully they will suit your needs
better than ATS.
Thanks,

Since this has to be done on a per domain / URL basis, you would either
write a plugin to do it, or, simply add remap rules. Yes, remap.config
is still used in forward proxy mode. So, e.g.
map http://www.google.com https://www.google.com
map http://www.twitter.com https://www.twitter.com
I'm sort of torn on how adviceable this is, because you now change the
behaviour users would see. But, a few select rules like this might make
sense I guess. Or even better, this might make a great way to run a
"private" proxy (e.g. on a laptop), ideally using a plugin that
discovers if the site supports HTTPS before trying the remap.
