Yes, the man page mentions the .conf and the seti_proxy_args= entry but it
doesn't give examples of the proper format. You were correct, however, I
did need the quotes.

This is what worked:

seti_proxy_args="-proxy xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:port"

If such an example could be added to the setiathome(1) man page then maybe
more people would use it. There might also be a mention of the FreeBSD
setiathome team so they could join.

Thank you for your time and attention,

The documentation is, essentially, the setiathome(1) manual itself.
The only trick for rc.setiathome.conf is to use the seti_proxy_args
variable, which you've already figured out.

That's what you need.  Except it should be in quotes, I think.
