Re: [squid-users] Can squidclient ping or query Squid for ICAP configuration?RESPMOD REQMOQ or service vector?

Hello Amos, this is a resend. I can connect with telnet mail.treenetnz.co.nz 25 but sending the mail using the SMTPd bounces or fails.

Hello Amos and all readers, thanks for the speedy and informative reply. 2.7.STABLE6 will not configure with --enable-icap-client and 3.0.STABLE13 makes and installs OK but won't accept anything on the gateway. The squid.conf is default except for debug_options set to ALL,3. The error condition follows with a snippet from: cache.log. Please advise, David.
