do you have ssh access? if so, setup a linux machine outside of this evil network and ssh into it. ssh is pretty configurable to get around firewalls/nats.

I tried adding the IP address for {smtp,pop}.gmail.com directly to my /etc/hosts, finally just substituted with the IP address itself in pine (as suggested on that link), but couldn't connect. I should've expected, with the evil NAT setup that I mentioned earlier ... all boxes here have private addresses (only) assigned to them, and connect to the outside world via a (squid/web) proxy ... Ick. [The proxy does allow CONNECT so some hope is left still.] Thanks for suggestions, Satyam
