Okay... that clearly didn't work. As I expected, it requires me to do a proxy
authorize before doing the check_from in order to get the credentials. The
problem is, this is an open proxy, so I don't WANT people to have to authorize
before calling through. I just want some way of making sure they ARE a valid
user if they claim to be.
Am I going to have to do a search("^From:.*@my.domain.com")) and then
proxy_authorise and check from... essentially only authenticating users who
claim to be from my system?
I'll give it a shot. Seems kind of backward, though.

I was under the impression check_from gathered its
data from credentials
(requiring a proxy authorize)...
Still, though, documentation on it being what it is (i.e. a line
saying simply "Check From username against URI table or digest
credentials." ), how would I use it to check if a user isn't in the
URI table but is pretending to be? Couch it in a Search?
Like:
if(search("^From:.*@my.domain.com"))
{
if(!check_from())
{
error and exit
};
};
?
