This tutorial will guide you to configure client computers to access internet via WFilter proxy server. For all below examples, we suppose the proxy server ip address is "192.168.2.100".

Because some email client programs does not support proxy(eg: outlook express), we provide the "POP3 Proxy Server" and the "SMTP Proxy Server". Below steps will guide you to access POP3/SMTP proxy service in outlook express.
In "Servers" properties, the "Incoming mail(POP3)" and "Outgoing mail(SMTP)" shall both be the proxy server. And the "Account name" format should be "username#real_pop3_server".
For SMTP proxy, "My server requires authentication" shall always be enabled.
The "Account name" format of "Logon Information" shall be "username#real_smtp_server".
If your SMTP server does not need authentication, the "Account name" shall be "#real_smtp_server" with any password.
