Thank you, I will have a look at it!
If I am correct, this is a way to surf any site (not only gmail) using apache as a passthrough, right? For gmail, being https, should I use a 443 (or HTTPS) port?
Thank you,

If you can connect to your proxy only over the tunnel then it doesn't matter if you use SSL since apache will use the encrypted connection to where ever.
But due browser security settings you should use SSL. |

Hi JB,
I am trying to play with it, but I cannot make it working.
Could you please help me on that?
| Code: | <VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName test.mydomain.com
ProxyRequests On
<Proxy *>
AddDefaultCharset off
Require ip 127.0.0.1
Require ip ::1
</Proxy>
ProxyVia Block
<Directory "/share/Web">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Require all granted
</Directory>
ProxyPass / http://gmail.com
</VirtualHost> |
Thanks!
ps: this is the error I got:

Please contact the server administrator and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

The 500 error is a config error. httpd -S might show an error in the config.
Anything in the error log?
by the way: gmail.com is not the correct domain. First is it a recirection to SSL. Secondly google mail uses a lot of domains. Not only gmail.com. With only one domain it will not work.
You may also need ProxyReversePass. I'm not sure. |

Thank you JB,
I will check logs (I need to figure out how to do it on a QNAP).
Yes, I think I just forgotten to copy here the ProxyReversePass line.
In any case, do you think all of this is feasable?
Or what other solution do you see from access gmail without any intervention on the client side?
Thanks,
