I suppose, you're talking about a HTTP-Proxy, aren't you?

Your mailserver? Talking about "your" mailserver at your ISP? Or talking
about your very own mailserver (the exim box)?

Iff the proxy is a HTTP, then it's not related to your SMTP setup. As
long as you've direct internet access to outside SMTP ports. This you
may test using netcat or telnet:

    nc -v <SOME OTHER MAILSERVER> 25
    telnet <SOME OTHTER MAILSERVER> 25


If you see a greeting, then at least you're able to reach the outside
world using SMTP. If you can send your mail directly to the recipient or
if you've to use your ISPs mail server as a relay depends on the "type"
of your outside IP.

Conclusion: we need some more information to help.
