when trying to send mails througt smtp. However, if i insert the mail server
domain in the 'No proxy for:' field, there are no problems, with connect to
imap, or smtp servers. I have not testet this with pop3. I use squid as proxy
server, and have masqueraded port 25 and 143 with iptables. I 'm running debian
woody, running kernel 1.4.19

Reproducible: Always

3.

Allowed me to get my mails even through i use a proxy server?
