Hi,

I installed squid as proxy server. But i was unable to user my mail clients like Outlook express. Some can help me in the issue.

Thank you

Hi
Squid is a HTTP proxy server, ie for web access and doens't support proxying email protocols.

You'll need to setup something like iptables or ipchains to either forward or masquerade your clients.

http://www.linux.org/docs/ldp/howto/IPCHAINS-HOWTO.html

And this I found in "The Linux Intranet Server HOWTO".... It might have some usefull info for you about e-mail and what not.
