Coldfusion through Internet Proxy

I just tried your first link doesn't seem to work, I'd already checked the second link and it works in an environment without a proxy.

Thanks.

Hi Ian, yes I know that but in this case what I'm trying to do is use cfmail in order to send e-mail with my gmail account. So far I've discovered that these parameters configure a proxy inside ColdFusion:
-DproxySet=true
-Dhttp.proxyHost= -Dhttp.proxyPort=
-Dhttps.proxyHost=-Dhttps.proxyPort=

And also found out that you need to use java settings in order to enable ssl conecction if I want to use cfpop to connect to a gmail account.

But so far I haven't been able either to connect to gmail using cfmail or cfpop.

I hope this clarify the topic a little bit.

You don't, except for specialized functions of ColdFusion. ColdFusion
does not communicate with the user, the web server does. It is the web
server that needs to worry about http/https proxies and what not.

The request flow is this.

Client sends request to web server.

Web server sees request is for ColdFusion resource and hands it off to
ColdFusion

ColdFusion process requested CFML and builds response. Response is
returned to web server

Web server receives response and send it on to client.

Proxies are going to be between the web server and the client, not the
web server and ColdFusion.
