In NetHopper, there is a setting for your HTTP proxy server. If your company
isn't using some fancy firewall server, you might be able to get through. If
not, then you're unfortunately out of luck...
I don't think that any mail client support HTTP proxy server, so I don't
think you'll be able to get your mail. If you're inside your corporate
network, make sure that the server that your company is using supports POP3
mail (or at least IMAP with SimpleMail, in a limited fashion)...
