RE: mail client that works through proxy



Alson,

-might be all wrong, let me know-

Since you mention AnalogX you "MUST" be using a windows machine as a proxy.
Tss Tss. I think that if you want to keep using this proxy you should
download the Analogx portmapper also to redirect these ports to your proxy
port.

To be honest, don't use those analogX utilities if you're onton something
more demanding, they're handy for office use now and then but won't get you
very far. Go for some old machine with some ram and some disc and configure
that as a proxy/firewall. Will do just fine and get you much better results.
The newest kernel brings a 'real' firewall with it and i guess there are
plenty of proxy products out there for linux.

greets,

joris
