Dear Expert,

If anyone faced such problem please help me how to enable SMTP and POP3 service so that i could send/receive mail in outlook from outside mail server through squid proxy.

Thanks in advance.

First, if you have RHEL5, your first contact should be RedHat support...you're paying for support with your RHEL subscription.

Second, Squid is an HTTP proxy...mail, obviously, is NOT http traffic. You can open holes in your firewall, or us IP tables to do port forwarding to get SMTP/POP3 through, but that's nothing to do with Squid. Based on your posting history, you've only ever responded to one question anyone has ever asked you, and never replied in your other threads. So putting more detail here seems pointless. Look up iptables and port forwarding on Google.
