Using CProxy Server with CMail Webmail and Internet Explorer
If you encounter erratic results when attempting to access a CMail Server Webmail that is running on the same network as CProxy Server, the most likely cause is that several users are accessing the same server and appear to be logging into Webmail from the same IP address. To solve this, enter a proxy exception for the Webmail server and port in the exceptions field at step 7 above in the format x.x.x.x:port. For example, 192.168.0.1:8002.
