If the proxy is outside your own
local network, then treat it exactly as you would any other
news-server.

As mentioned in the reply to Rom, I'd like to use one of those free
(e.g anonymous) proxies out there, so the message would have the
proxy's IP.

I think you are confusing NNTP with HTTP. Whereas there are public
(mostly not free for the full service) 'anonymising proxy web
servers' out

I read up a bit on it on the Internet and, seems, proxies don't do
NNTP.

Incorrect. They type of proxies you are looking at do not do NNTP.

Tunnelling would work and I think I found some software already.
Got a do some more reading.

I know everything about headers and I got more than 10 servers working
with Dialog (mostly even anonymizing servers), but I want to do some
specific thing.


Why not tell us what that specific thing is so we can help instead of
making us guess?
