i'm looking at this senario :

we have got a lot of clients in china who have problems connecting to
our servers locally. For some reasons unknown, traffic to our network
from china is being filtered by the government over there. So the ideal
solution i'm looking at is to have a server in china herself to act as a
proxy between the users there and the servers here since datacentre to
datacentre connection is so much better. Since we have got multiple smtp
servers for different clients, the proxy must be able to forward the
credentials between the users in china and the smtp servers here
locally. ideas anyone?
