The only thing the http proxy is used for is fetching lists of running edonkey servers. Everything else is done via the other ports. Even if you are behind a firewall/nat you should be able to connect to an edonkey server (but probably not overnet as they don't have servers). You may get bumped by some servers though as they cannot connect back to you. Just for laughs, try running (Windows) netmeeting behind standard NAT.
