SYMPTOMS
When you attempt to send an attachment with a message using the Outlook Web Access client, the following error may occur:

HTTP Proxy Reports: The proxy server has encountered an error (software

caused connection to abort).



CAUSE
By default, the option "Do not use proxy server for local addresses" is not selected in Internet Explorer. This causes the browser to use the proxy server for the local Outlook Web Access server.



WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, when you set up the proxy configuration for Internet Explorer, select the "Do not use Proxy Server for local addresses" option on the Connection settings tab.
