[IMail Forum] Maybe off topic about SOCKS clients

[FCI Postmaster]

Hi fellas, Although I don't contribute much to this forum (mostly b/c Dusty stays on top of 90% of the questions here <g>), I read the post almost everyday.  First let me say thanks to everyone for contributing.  There have been many occasions that I hef benefited from your input.   To my question: How can I "SOCKSify OE4 so that it will connect to POP3 through an AS400 Proxy/Firewall using SOCKS?  I'm running IMAIL V5.04 with no problems on the non-secure side.  I want the secure client to connect to Imail which is running on the non-secure side.  Netscape works fine, but I believe this is due to the fact that Netscape Mail/Messenger is SOCKSified when you set Netscape up for Proxy.   Has anyone used SocksCap (found @ http://www.socks.nec.com/).  IBM Firewall Support mention AutoSocks, but I can't seem to find this product.  If anyone is using something that works, please let me know.  Or should I try a different client?  Any input and/or advise is greatly appreciated.   Thanks in advance,   Scott King SysAdmin, FCI
