 My intranet filter DNS lookups, so even when I use a SOCKS proxy, pidgin
 does not work unless I replace host names with IP addresses. The google
 and yahoo servers do not resolve. Pidgin can not connect. It works when  I
 replace

 Firefox has a configuration option
 network.socks.proxy_remote_dns
 which sends DNS requests via the SOCKS proxy.

 It would be great if pidgin could allow this option as well.
