SQLMessenger supports connecting to the mail server through an HTTP proxy server. You can configure the HTTP proxy server in the Proxy Server Manager, and then set up the Connect through HTTP Proxy Server option for the email account in the Advanced Options of the Email Account Properties dialog box. When the system sends and receives emails using this email account, it will connect to the corresponding mail server through the proxy server you have set up.
