You should consider using a profile file for the bash environment like:

/etc/profile.d/proxy.sh

export http_proxy=http://host.com:port/
export ftp_proxy=http://host.com:port/
export no_proxy=.domain.com
export HTTP_PROXY=http://host.com:port/
export FTP_PROXY=http://host.com:port/

This will set the proxy globally.

Please check to use a different mail system too. This bloody MS Exchange
server always destroys the thread, means each message by you appears as
a single message because the mailer eliminates the referencing header
tags. The disclaimer part is nonsense when posting to public and
archived mailing list. (I can give you a gmail invitation if you like
that.)
