Telepathy Butterfly (MSN) already supports SOCKS5 and HTTP Connect proxy
with authentication. I'm working on adding HTTP Connect proxy to Wocky
(while SOCKS5/4a/4 is provided by GLib 2.26 and newer).

I suggest we attach dependency to this bug for tracking. Contrary to
what Pidgin do, Telepathy connection manager rely on system proxy
settings only for now (which are optained using libproxy).

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: empathy

  Empathy wont connect to any major service trough a proxy. I've tried Google Talk, Jabber, MSN and Yahoo.
  I set the proxy preferences in GNOME, it's a plain proxy for all protocols, without authentication.

  Pidgin works normally in the same setup.

  Ubuntu 8.10, Empathy 2.24.1
