rpmdrake edits ~/.wgetrc so it sets proxies for wget so it does work.
What it does not do is to set proxy user/pass (see recent thread). Also,
the latest version of rpmdrake forces urpmi to use wget even if curl is
available.

To force  wget on command line either uninstall curl or use urpmi --wget
...

I am still not sure how is it going with mirror list in rpmdrake because
it is (has been) using libcurl and not command so it must still have
problems with proxies that need authentication. It should work with
proxies without authentication because it does set proxy when calling
libcurl.
