Thanks for the info but I did just wondered if varnish pass it to the backend 
or if it drops the request. I did some tests and it seems like it passes the 
request to the backend. 

BTW, what program may I use to have https2http? Isn't https encrypted?

It would not be a normal HTTP request, so Varnish would not try to
handle it.  You could place a https to http gateway between your users
and varnish, so varnish can accelerate the http traffic.  The pipeline
would look like this:

Duh Internet - https2http gw - varnish - http server
