We use MS Proxy and it works great, as I think you've found, for the
web, but email is a different story.
The only email client I can get to work is Cyberdog. As far as I know you
must use a SOCKS compatible email client. Eudora, Emailer, MailSmith, and
Outlook
Express (I've tried and tried with OE and I can't get it to work) do not
support
SOCKS. I'd love to be proved wrong about Outlook Express, I've emailed
Microsoft many times about how to configure OE for socks but no reply...
