Hello,

I'm using actually Ubuntu 12.10.
I parameterized succefully several account bye "All Parameters / Account in 
ligne /" (sorry, perhaps bad translation from me .... the text of my french 
desktop is : "Tous les paramètres / Comptes en ligne"
- Facebook
- IRC
- SIP
- Windows Live (yes I know, it's bad ... don't hurt me for this)
All was alright and working well.

I installed squid3 (each VM on Virtualbox inside the PC can access to this 
local proxy cache now with IP 192.168.1.100:3128).
I parameterized this proxy via "All Parameters / Network / Proxy server "  
("Tous les paramètres / Network / Serveur mandataire")
So now the parameters are :
- Method : manual
- Proxy HTTP : 127.0.0.1:3128
- Proxy HTTPS : 127.0.0.1:3128
- Proxy FTP : 127.0.0.1:3128
- Hôte Socks : 127.0.0.1:3128

All chat was working well ... until I reboot !
I saw this help : 
http://anupam128.blogspot.fr/2011/03/using-empathy-behind-proxy.html
I uninstalled : account-plugin-salut, account-plugin-jabber, telepathy-core, 
telepathy-gnome and reinstalled telepathy-haze.
No help ... no resolve ..

After, I unsetted the proxy in "All parameters / Network"
I disconnected / then reconnected.
Empathy is working well without proxy, even the manipulation of paquet 
suppression.

If I set proxy another time, then disconnect / reconnect ... KO
impossible to have any connection on the chat.

Waiting, my only solution is to unset the proxy ...
Parameterize the /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/02proxy for have a "cache" on the PC to 
proxing the VMs.
Parameterize firefox ... and work without any proxy with chromium ... bad.

Thanks for your help.

Bug description:
  Empathy is unable to connect behind the proxy servers whatever way we try. It 
doesn't utilize the proxy settings given globally to the system. There is no 
proxy option in the program also. I tried connecting to empathy from Ubuntu 
11.10 in three systems behind a proxy server and in all cases it failed. 
  I tried all of the following but none worked:

  1. Changing settings with gconf-editor ( Walk down the tree to system -> 
http_proxy . Search for use_http_proxy and check it. )
  Even after doing that there is no change in behaviour of empathy
  2. gksudo gedit /etc/bash.bashrc
  export http_proxy=http://proxyhost:port/
  export ftp_proxy=http://proxyhost:port/
  save and exit
  This also didnt help anything
  3. Using tsocks and editing its config files also.
  In that case the result was:
  "tsocks dbus-launch  empathy" fails to retrieve the accounts list.
  "tsocks empathy" launches empathy, but it is unable to connect..

  Please generate a patch for this problem and release new version of
  the program.
