Ah, well.. at least it does normal routing.

routing to another proxy is done with cache_peer + cache_peer_access. In
the packet level you route the address of that other proxy instead of
the requested web server..

Rubbish. Having this kind of restrictions on messages posted in public
forums is a complete contradiction, and honesty quite rude as we can not
"legally" respond to your questions without first asking you if we may
respond, unless of course we take the act of you posting the information
in public in the first place as an implicit permission to do whatever we
like with what you wrote.

this is now the second time I intentionally violate your disclaimer, and
proud of it. To everyone else using such disclaimers I hereby publicly
declare them void in my eyes (and most certainly are in my
jurisdiction), and consider it just annoying Internet garbage.

If you absolutely have to use and comply with such disclaimers then
please don't use any forms of public forums as your company policy
clearly does not allow you to. If this is an issue to you please discuss
it with your legal department.

A interesting sidenote: I saw that you are working for the state of
queensland. Here in Sweden communication to/from anyone working for the
state is by default public information by law. There is a few
exceptions, but mainly when it comes to issues relating to personal
integrity issues (for example communication to/from your doctor about
your health, social servcices about your situation etc)
