Thanks for the kind words.
I'd be interested in seeing this script, as it seems an interesting
tool to have. Simon Cozens told me that he had a similar tool (called
wherewas) based on HTTP::Proxy, which basically gave him a search engine
for anything he browsed, thus allowing him to easily find the URL to a
page that he vaguely remembered.

Show quoted text> Some information:
Thanks for the log. I see your problematic traffic goes through a
CONNECT method. CONNECT support in HTTP::Proxy is not very good,
to say the least.
In my understanding, you're connecting to Gmail using https,
so the simplest way to avoid going through your HTTP::Proxy
for https traffic (since HTTP::Proxy is not able to peek into
it anyway, you probably do not care).
So simply disable the proxy on https traffic in your browser,
and you should be able to use https sites correctly.
For a few years now, I've been thinking of a rewrite of HTTP::Proxy
that would focus on the content (HTTP messages) and not on the protocols
(HTTP, TCP and SSL, which are better handled by the appropriate programs).
With Plack, this seems very possible, but I'm lacking time, so don't hold
you breath. :-S
