Hi all,

I have just installed the Windoze version of Exodus but I can't persuade it
to go though my works proxy server. I can't find any details on what fields
need to be configured so I'll give you my set-up:

Exodus Tools|Options|Network: HTTP Proxy: Use IE Settings (IE does work
correctly).
Login profile|Details
      Connection
            Type: Normal
            Host: jabber.netlab.nec.de
            Port: 5223
      SSL:
            Use StartTLS whenever the server allows it.
      Proxy:
            Type: HTTP
            All other fields in this tab are greyed out.

      Profile:
            Server:
                  If I click "Download a list of servers" it just times
out.
                  If I put in a valid server name, jabber.netlab.nec.de it
tries to connect to that server, but it doesn't use the HTTP proxy server!

I have access to my firewall logs and I can see that Exodus is trying to
connect directly to the jabber server rather than going through the proxy
server.

Can someone please explain what it is I am missing?
