Greetings :
Sorry for the OT, but I noticed that one some emails from the list,
Mozilla adds a Newsgroups: evolt to the preview screen, and to others it
doesn't.
Anyone know (a) what causes this (b) can you filter using this info?
<tip type="HTTP Proxy Tricks" author="Burhan Khalid">
Perhaps your work uses a HTTP proxy for all incoming
and outgoing transactions. If so, you will soon find
that most of these are restrictive and won't allow
access to POP/SMTP/FTP etc. ports.
A solution is a program called desproxy, available
at sourceforge. It acts as a TCP wrapper for all
communication, and allows you to use FTP (Passive only)
IRC, POP, SMTP, and programs that are SOCKS5 compatible.
Using this program, I am able to use Mozilla mail
to check my email, instead of having to port
everything through the likes of yahoo mail
