First of all, are you sure that you need to connect to your mail servers through the proxy? A http proxy is typically only meant for web connections.
If you do, you need to make sure that your email applications are actually establishing their connections through the proxy. By default, most email applications will not connect via a http proxy server. You can do this by monitoring your network connections using whatever tools are present on your OS. At the minimum, you should have netstat
that can be used as a crude monitor.
Secondly, if your email applications are really using the connection through the http proxy, it is possible that the proxy server has been configured to only allow connections to port 80 and 443. You can test this by telnet into the proxy (possibly over SSL) and issuing a CONNECT
command to see if it can connect to non port 80/443 servers.
