w3mir:

while ssl/https is not directly supported, you could either:
- build SSL support into libwww used by w3mir
  (Note: w3mir does not work with LWP 5.40/URI 1.0 and later) 
- since you list proxy as one of your conditions above, you could
  use the proxy to support your ssl connections. 
  (Note: connections -to- your proxy would not use ssl)
