AFAIK OpenSSL does not provide specific support for SSL via proxy, but you can set up a SSL connection using the CONNECT request to the proxy. Using a proxy for SSL connection does not make sense if you want to take advantage of a proxy's caching feature, since these CONNECT requests cannot be cached. This is by design. Using a proxy for SSL can be useful if you want to avoid NAT, or want to log, or filter, the connection targets.
