Error 451 received by server #100

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Some servers (according to research it is Exchange 2007, maybe more versions) 
respond with error 451 which is "Device Misconfigured". This means that the 
client is trying to access the "wrong" frontend server. Apparently, this only 
affects certain types of server configurations and infrastructure set-ups.

The solution is to:
1) Discover and handle error 451
2) The response contains a "Location: [new URL]" header; use that to connect
3) If succesful, record the new URL (save conf) and continue

Still needs verification since we don't have access to a load balanced Exchange 
server which does this.
