I've applied a bug fix to current devel and stable CVS that
allows one to configure the proto+hostname+port part of the
base uri (optionally), so situations like this where that
goes wrong can then be fixed by the administrator. I think
we cannot further improve our heuristic because some things
we just don't know.

We've changed some code in 1.4.7 to better handle this
situation automatically. I recommend that you try that
version and report back whether it has been resolved. Thanks.

Ah, thanks for the info. This is a known problem, I'm
working on a solution that will allow to set the base url by
hand (almost any other sufficiently advanced web application
has this).

The whole problem for me came down to the function
"get_location" in /functions/strings.php. It was not
returning "https://my.webmail.com" it was returning
"http://my.webmail.com".

My hack for now was changing the following in strings.php

if ( sqgetGlobalVar('sq_base_url', $full_url, SQ_SESSION) ) {
$full_url = "https://my.webmail.com";
return $full_url . $path;
}


I know its a hack but it works.....

this sound similar to issue 716762. I posted a lot of debugging info on
that bug that might apply here as well.
