I'm putting assets to S3 with expiry headers, which successfully get passed through to CloudFront distributions. However, requests after the expiry don't result in CloudFront requesting a fresh file from the origin server.

The feature matrix for Delphi says: 'Added in 2007! SOAP features updated to support Amazon, eBay, MapPoint, and more'. I was able to build a working client, without special workarounds for the Amazon Simple Queue Service. With Amazon SimpleDB, I ran out of luck (but not because of Delphi, see here).
