Very valid question.
Most people prefer handing IMAP and other random protocols by using NAT
instead of via an HTTP proxy.
The second alternative on the preferred list is using a generic SOCKS
proxy, possibly with an automatic wrapper installed on the client
stations to divert network requests to the SOCKS server..
There is also the alternative of using an IMAP proxy, which sometimes
even adds benefits such as cache etc.. (mostly interesting for dumb
clients not having a good local cache themselves)
