[tor-talk] torifying TB

2011-11-20 Thread eliaz
Following the instructions in the "Configure Thunderbird to work through 
Tor" help file. I've successfully set up tormail in Thunderbird. 
However, I don't know what the "No Proxy for" field on the TB Network & 
Disk Space > Settings tab is supposed to mean. Whether I leave 
"Localhost, 127.0.0.1" (as shown in the screen grab in the help file) or 
delete it altogether, the configured mail seems to work as well. Can 
some one fill me in on this? Is the field irrelevant to the manual proxy 
configuration? Apologies for a newbie question, & thanks eli

All I've ever seen automatic settings that Torbutton sets up in Firefox 
is like you said,

the No Proxy for is left at default "Localhost, 127.0.0.1"

Yah - When I reload tormail, I get a complaint that Network & Disk Space 
is misconfigured until I  put "localhost,127,0.0.1" back in the "No 
Proxy for" field. Of course: "localhost,127,0.0.1" was still in memory 
until I reloaded. The name of that field could've been clearer, after 
all the point of manual config. is to set up new http & ssl proxies. 
Anyway, I  know how to set it up to work, if not quite why.
