Hi, thanks for reporting this bug.

There are two thing Geary could use a proxy for:

  - Sending IMAP and SMTP connections for sending and receiving via a proxy such as SOCKS
  - Sending HTTP requests for external image loading in HTML messages via a HTTP/SOCKS proxy

Which of these two is affecting you?

Also which version Geary and Ubuntu are you using?

This should work for the HTTP case, since Geary uses Libsoup for HTTP requests, which for at least Ubuntu Trusty uses the user's desktop proxy settings.

summary: - Networ Proxy settings geary
+ Network Proxy settings
