[stunnel-users] issue making stunnel 4.35 use an apache http proxy to go out?

Am I reading the source code right ... it seems like there might be a bug in the way it looks for the protocol option:

>             cifs_client(c);

>             smtp_client(c);
>         else if(!strcmp(c->opt->protocol, "pop3"))

>         else if(!strcmp(c->opt->protocol, "imap"))
>             imap_client(c);
>         else if(!strcmp(c->opt->protocol, "nntp"))

It seems most places in the code get their 'options' by checking c->opt->option.<option name>... but here, it is looking for c->opt->protocol.. I'm not sure, but that just seems different than everywhere else?

I'm trying to make stunnel use this service, and it seems to be ignoring my configuration completely. Tcpdumps show NO packets going outbound on port 3128... any ideas what i'm doing wrong? This config allows an inbound connection to port 1234 to hit port 2345  (a local service), while also handling the setup of an inbound connection to localhost:514 to a remote host on port 1514...
