I don't need to add anything with the bypass addresses beginning with:
box do I?
At the moment it's box just shows <local>

Thanks so far.

This is a resend without my signature which I believe hindered previous
requests in case you get a duplicate.

can go to

	Tor/Privoxy configuration then hit the green "+" button at the top
right,
	Name it "TOR(Privoxy)", address is "localhost:8118" and speed is
"faster".
	If you want to use TOR alone without Privoxy(not recommended, less
secure),
	Name it "TOR(No Privoxy)", address is "localhost:9050", speed is
"faster".
	
	To use it, go to "options", "proxy", then select the proxy you want
to use.

		What's a maxthon browser?  Does it have options for SOCKS5?
		Have you tried wrapping it with freecap?

		Tor doesn't send emails.  If you have Tor configured as a
		server, your anti-virus program is probably seeing someone
		else's mail traffic.
	
	: Is there a .exe program that I can use with my e-mail readers

		Use freecap, or setup Thunderbird to use Tor as a SOCKS
server.
		I believe someone wrote up how to do this on the wiki.
