Then you need to set one up, or have someone else (your network
administrator) do that. An SMTP proxy is the same as a smart host: it
accepts mails and sends them onwards. You can't use an HTTP or FTP
proxy for SMTP because they don't understand the protocols. Try
seeing if your HTTP proxy also accepts SMTP by doing
telnet ip.of.http.proxy 25
and checking if it accepts the connection and gives you an smtp banner.
