Two approaches:

1) automatic teaching clue-by-4 stick for your users:

acl badGmail dstdomain gmail.com
acl HTTP proto HTTP
deny_info http://yourhostname/gmail_is_broken.html badGmail
http_access deny HTTP badGmail

2) leave the peons ignorant and MAKE it work:

acl badGmail dstdomain gmail.com
acl HTTP proto HTTP

cache_peer gmail.com 443 0 no-query originserver
cache_peer_access gmail.com allow badGmail
cache_peer_access gmail.com deny !badGmail
never_direct deny HTTP badGmail
