This isn't a proxy specific issue, as a result you'll probably get a 
better response if you ask this question on the [email protected] 
mailing list.

I am not aware that this is possible - you would need a mechanism to 
specify the source address, and this is an OS specific thing to my 
knowledge. If you ask on the dev list, you'll probably get a better 
explanation.
