It sounds like you're trying to use the HTTP proxy for tunnelling TLS, so you
send a CONNECT to the proxy and then continue with TLS as normal, is that it?
There's an outline of support for that in the code, but it's never been tested
since I didn't have access to a proxy that allowed that (which is also why
it's not enabled).  Do you have a proxy available that I could use for
testing?

Peter.
