The proxy is a device used by your ISP to route (and in theory make more efficient) web page access. If the proxy refuses to talk to you, then you will not be able to see any web pages. Mail does not go through a proxy server. As to why it is refusing connections, who knows. You need to ask your ISP. I would think that if you waited for a few hours, whatever is wrong will be fixed and it will all be working again.
