Dear all2,
At my customer office the internet access is blocked with WebProxy feature from MikroTik (RB450G v3.25) and only allow some sites, for example yahoo email, i already allow:
*.yahoo.com
*.yimg.com
But the problem is can not download attachment, i found that yahoomail save the attachment files at different server:
http://124.108.114.77/id.f767.mail.y...redownload?bla bla
http://124.108.114.77/id.f770.mail.y...redownload?bla bla
http://216.252.121.32/us.f451.mail.y...redownload?bla bla

How to allow that on WebProxy? please help me, because the server IP address not always same.

Thanks,
Yudi

Match the host part of the URl with a regular expression. Unfortunately you didn't post the whole URI.

hi,

i have the same problem. my office have a policy that somw user only have an access to yahoo mail. i successfully block the other site except to yahoo mail. but unfortunately the client computer can't download an attachment using yahoo mail. I've try to make an access rule to allow path like this:

":\.mail\.yahoo\.com/ya/securedownload"

but the result is just the same. the client still can't download an attachment using yahoo mail. is any other idea for make another rule?

thanks
