I just realized that DevonThink 2.0pb8 uses the global proxy settings of Mac OS. This is highly problematic, in my opinion. This is software for knowledge workers. Such workers often rely on proxy servers provided by their host institutions (university, research center, etc.) for accessing such resources as article databases. At the same time, however, they do not want to channel all their web traffic through that web server. For example, why listen to internet radio through the university proxy server?
Please consider the possibility of adding dedicated proxy settings for DevonThink.
Thank you.
