Firefox does *not* cache https.
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=309368

IE does, but *only* if the Caching headers allow it.  Many browsers  
will cache pages even (if expired) if using http only.  So there is  
absolutely nothing wrong with the statement "you should use https".

Again, Horde/PHP obviously does *not* allow caching of scripts by  
default (one exception: we allow caching of JS/CSS files in the latest  
version of IMP but that is irrelevant) .  It requires some additional  
configuration out of our control to cause the server to send Expires  
headers that are not in the distant past.  Don't believe me?  Grep the  
code for either 'session_cache_limiter' or 'Expires:' and you will see.

So, given the information provided, the only reasonable explanation is  
that you have either modified your php.ini or your web server/proxy is  
altering Expires headers or your browser(s) tested are broken.  Since  
this is a Horde list, that is the extent to which we can help you.

I will ignore the insinuation that I am either ignorant or not  
competent to help.  That is simply unprofessional and uncalled for.
