Hi Robert and everyone else on the list,

I know it has been a while sence I brought this matter to the list, but I would
now like to officially request that the suggested change you provided me below
to fix my problem be added to the next release of Pound.

We just started working with an Apache 2.x backend and discovered that it has
the same problem I mentioned below (that is mod_cgi in Apache 2 does this too).
So you don't have to read the entire message below the problem is: IIS and
Apache 2 return content on a Redirect (302 status); Pound ignores this contect
but leaves the content-length header intact; The browser stalls waiting for the
now missing content; the end user experiences slowness.

Thanks for your assistance in this matter.

John D.

Opinions are divided on the understanding of 30x codes - actually even the RFC 
admits that it might not conform (see for example the relevant sections in 
RFC 2616).

To make matters worse: in some circumstances (such as 304 Not Modified) having 
a Content-length does not indicate that there is any actual content...

It was taken in that spirit.[...]

Thanks for the reminder. I just uploaded a new -current that filters only on 
304, 305 and 306 codes. As usual let us know how it works for you.[...]

Robert,

Thanks for the prompt response. The new version does take care of this issue.
