Hello All,
Is there a way of proxying mail.google.com ?
I was trying different combinations of settings : with and without custom locations, certificates, etc without any luck.

Thanks a lot for an awesome product!

Thanks for your prompt reply.
Basically, I am trying to avoid gmail being blocked by government, employer, etc.
Not sure even if it is possible with proxying through nginx.
Regards!

I would consider trying Cloudfront for that purpose, would be faster internet access from anywhere.

I can't explain why off the top of my head but I'd expect google to have measures in place to prevent this kind of proxying, otherwise their Gsuite offering could be diminished.
