#https_proxy:http://localhost:8080/
#ftp_proxy:http://some.server.dom:port/
#gopher_proxy:http://some.server.dom:port/
#news_proxy:http://some.server.dom:port/
#newspost_proxy:http://some.server.dom:port/
#newsreply_proxy:http://some.server.dom:port/
#snews_proxy:http://some.server.dom:port/
#snewspost_proxy:http://some.server.dom:port/
#snewsreply_proxy:http://some.server.dom:port/
#nntp_proxy:http://some.server.dom:port/
#wais_proxy:http://some.server.dom:port/
#finger_proxy:http://some.server.dom:port/
