I am sure that its not using the proxy because I can put in a totally bogus 
proxy address (i.e thiswontwork.nothere.com <http://thiswontwork.nothere.com/>) 
and as long as “Use client login” is checked it connects and I can send IM 
messages.  I also verified in the debug logs that the proxy isn’t even 
mentioned if “Use client login” is checked.
