 Replying to [ticket:6441 proper]:

 > I wanted to use a proxy on a non-standard IP/port. Custom proxy settings
 are always lost after restart.
 > Using user.js is also ineffective. Using custom proxy settings has
 worked with a older TorBirdy version, although I forgot which one.

 In the newer version of TorBirdy, we are forcing the preferences we set on
 Thunderbird restart, so the preferences you save are lost.

 But this is required, so it's in our to-do. We will be implementing this.
