I am trying to use the protocol entries in the config file as shown below (xyz substituted to protect employer & vendor).  Below is the log.  Stunnel abends as it is trying to authenticate to our corporate proxy.  The network guys are seeing the attempt to authenticate but it does not appear to complete.  Any thoughts?

key=maxstpb.crt
debug=7
output=stunnel.log
client=yes

[MarketAxess]
accept=127.0.0.1:12345
delay=yes
TIMEOUTbusy=120
TIMEOUTconnect=120
connect=xyz.xyz.com:80
protocol=connect
protocolHost=xyz.xyz.com:443
protocolCredentials=xyz:xyz
