Simon comment was posted in 2008, Gnome 3 didn't yet exist to make proxy
support worst.

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
