[Evolution] GNOME proxy support in pre-2.24 releases?

2009-02-09 Thread Jeff
Hello, I read up in the fine manual that Evo has a section for proxies
in the preferences, with the option to have it automatically handled
according to GNOME's settings, which is great.

However, I have a computer running 2.22 and it doesn't have this setting
(the manual section about proxies is absent, too). I will not be
upgrading that computer for the foreseeable future, so I'd just like to
know this: should I safely assume that Evolution 2.22 uses my gnome
proxy settings transparently by default?

Basically, my use case is hoping that setting gnome's proxy settings to
point to a SSH tunnel is enough for using Evolution 2.22 over an
unsecured public wifi.

Thank you for your time.

If you're running GNOME, yes.
