I'm using squid3.0 as our proxy server to serve the internet users, which is working fine. Now I want users to access IMAP(say gmail on imap) over my proxy. Can anyone let me know, How do I do this? Is there any way I can do it with squid? Is there any other way?
So far what I've read on google is, as squid is an http proxy, it only supports http/ftp protocol. not fully for even https. Is there any other way to proxy remaining protocols like imap/imap4/pop3/smtp
Even if you can do it via squid (somehow by using CONNECT method), it won't log IMAP level details. Your best option is to use an application proxy server like Delegate (http://www.delegate.org). It handles a lot of protocols.
But I don't think it is _free_ software even though the sources are available and is being distributed freely.

Hi Raghu,
If it is not free, I'll be probably not using it. Rather I'm thinking to use a SOCKS proxy.

Not exactly sure how to interpret it but freshmeat shows it's license as freely distributable http://freshmeat.net/projects/delegate/

Free of cost or free software?
