You have misunderstood what squid can do for you. It is not responsible for proxying mail traffic whether that be smtp/pop/imap or anything else. Your outlook clients should have the hostname/ip address of the mail servers they wish to use, not the the ip of the squid server, and it is the responsibility of your internet gateway/router to get packets out to them and back. squid is not a general purpose proxy/router/gateway/firewall like microsoft isa server or similar. -- Michael
