Can I use WebFetch through an HTTP proxy?
Yes, for fetching from the Net, you can. Though for obvious reasons, you won’t be able to export your site’s news to the Net unless you make arrangements to have your generated files copied to an Internet-reachable server. Since WebFetch uses the Perl5 module LWP::UserAgent to make its web requests, just make sure the LWP (libwww-perl) modules are configured to go through your HTTP proxy. Once that’s done, WebFetch will come along for the ride.
