According to the suds documentation I can set the proxy setting like this:
d = dict(http='host:80', https='host:443', ...)
client.set_options(proxy=d)
My problem is that you can only do that after 'client' was initiated like this:
client = Client(url)
And I need the proxy to reach the url.

Hello,
I am pleased to announce that the new version of YAMI4, 1.2.0, has
been just released and is available for download:
http://www.inspirel.com/yami4/
The most important addition for Python programmers is the Python 2.5+
module that complements the already existing Python 3.x library.
Thanks
