[tor-talk] torifying TB
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 ___ tor-talk mailing list tor-talk@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk

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" ___ tor-talk mailing list tor-talk@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
Re: [tor-talk] torifying TB
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. ___ tor-talk mailing list tor-talk@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
