I've tried it, but again the editor asks me for usernam/password each
time I try to do a net-related operation and then refuses to download
packages with the same error (Proxy authentication required).
Of course, I've tried using http_proxy variable and, at the same time,
I removed the .emacs configuration. Please note that the same
http_proxy variable value works from the command line (e.g., wget
something works).
Any idea?
