![]() With Thunderbird though, you can connect to a VPN through Socks and it'll work for the mail connections. The only option you have is to use incoming and outgoing mail servers in Opera that act as a proxy to the VPN and then to the real mail servers. This also means that copying over the proxy settings to the standalone Opera Mail program won't have any effect. The Opera Mail part will still connect directly. If I remember correctly though, the downside is that the proxy only works for the browser part. "Alt + P -> Advanced -> Network -> Proxy Servers". ![]() You can then duplicate the settings you want in Opera Mail's operaprefs.ini.Īnyway, in Opera 12, you can connect to a VPN through a Socks5 proxy. If you still like using Opera Mail, you can make changes to preferences in Opera 12, close Opera 12 and look at operaprefs.ini (see opera:about for the location). The bonus to doing that is opera:config is available and all the settings are still there in preferences. In "Alt + P -> advanced -> Programs", you can add/set http and https to "open with default application" so that links in emails open in your default browser. However, you can use Opera 12 just for mail if you want. Opera Mail was discontinued years ago soon after it was created. A lot settings are missing in the preferences UI where you have to edit operaprefs.ini etc. Opera Mail is an unfinished, buggy, stripped-down version of the Opera 12 browser suite to show only the mail parts so you can use it just for mail.
