If the remote server was rate-limiting my request then shouldn't I be able to see the same result then when manually embedding an image in a post?  So far I've been unable to reproduce the result even with trying to hammer away by posting the same URL over & over again in different posts.  Know of any non-NASA redirected images I can try hammering away with?

I just tried now 10 times in a row... it would alternate between error and no error so about 6 good, 4 bad.  Interestingly some of the errors report a timeout when trying to connect to port 443 (as opposed to just port 80) so it seems that at least some times the redirect is being recognized and trying to be loaded.

Thinking out loud... I'm wondering if I can increase the connection timeout to see if that makes a difference; looks like it might be getting set to 150 seconds. (EDIT: But in the proxy test tool it returns the timeout error within a couple of seconds, not 150.  Hhhmm....)
