Ok, then there's *ONLY ONE POSSIBILITY* - your firewall has NO VALID DNS
REVERSE LOOKUP. Fix that.
Now, if what you're REALLY saying is:
"When I connect to a site that requires a *proper E-Mail address for the
anonymous password prompt*"
You've got a different problem that's basically a restriction in the old
http-gw - it sends a fixed password string. 2.0 sends "httpgw @
hostname".
What confuses me about your question is this part:

I don't understand where authsrv gets involved..
