Question: what exactly do you want your proxy to do with smtp traffic? If you just want it passed through (which your comment about sockets suggests), then all you need is port forwarding. Any decent OS will do this for you, so there is no need of a special app. If you want the proxy server to manipulate the smtp traffic, then you really need an smtp server on the proxy server. There are lots of good ones out there. I suggest postfix.
