User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; es-AR; rv:1.9.1.16) Gecko/20110701 Iceweasel/3.5.16 (like Firefox/3.5.16) Build ID: 20110701113851 Steps to reproduce: 1 - Configure a Proxy that asks for user and password (in my case Squid). 2 - Enter to yahoo.com webmail. 3 - Create a new email and try to add an attachment. Actual results: It waits indefinitely. From my Squid access.log I see that it access *.attach.yahoo.com but without sending the proxy user and password so Squid correctly denies it. Tried with Firefox 6.0 and had the same problem. Expected results: It should had sent the user and password to the proxy as it always does.
Look for attach.mail.yahoo.com. In the Squid access.log I get: TCP_DENIED/407 2018 POST http://ne1.attach.mail.yahoo.com/us.f1218.mail.yahoo.com/ya/upload _with_cred? - NONE/- text/html That clearly shows that the user and password for the proxy isn't being sent by Firefox.
