Proxyman.exe is not a critical component and a non-system process. Any process that is not managed by the system is known as non-system processes. It is safe to terminate the non-system process as they do not affect the general functionality of the operating system. However, the program using the non-system processes will be either terminated. New in version 3.0: per-email address signatures are now supported! Proxy Manager lets you send emails from Outlook using any alias (proxy) SMTP address with an arbitrary display name from your Exchange account, hosted or on-premises. Last updated: November 15, 2020, version 3.3.0.1027. Proxy Manager Installer (32 and 64 bit) - for 32 and 64 bit versions of Outlook 2010, 2013, 2016., 2019. If you are having troubles with the installer, download the zip file with the dlls, copy the appropriate version of the dll (ProxyMan32.dll for a 32 bit version of Outlook and ProxyMan64.dll for a 64 bit version) to any folder.

Proxyman is a high-performance macOS app, which enables developers to view HTTP/HTTPS requests from apps and domains.
Proxyman Localhost
Features:
Proxyman Master
- Intuitive interface - Proxyman was built for macOS with a focus on frictionless user experience. Navigate through three panels in a distraction-free environment. Organize apps and domains in the first one, view the flows in the second, and manage Request/Response content in the third.
- Consistent performance - While Proxyman is ready to work on your tasks non-stop, it’s not draining your Mac. The app is written in Swift and C++ to keep your debugging performance high and ensure overall stability. So no need to worry about your battery use or network connection - they will be taken care for.
- A list of sources, organized - Bring order into the way you manage and search sources. Based on Finder-like behavior, Proxyman lets you find apps and domains with Ctrl+Shift+F, just as you’re used to. You can drag and drop to organize sources as well as pin those you’re focusing at.
- Automatic SSL proxying - Easily enable SSL proxying for domains. The app generates certificates automatically, so you can install and trust the Proxyman Certificate or add it manually. Acting as a middleMan, Proxyman logs HTTP/HTTPS traffic between SSL Web Server and your app.
- View HTTP/HTTPS requests - With Proxyman Certificate installed, you’re all set for a smooth debugging experience. View HTTP/HTTPS requests in JSON, navigate between Header, Query, Cookies, and JSON response as well as search the content with in-built tools or your custom editors.
- Professional debug toolkit - Proxyman comes with a collection of useful tools for refining your debugging. Repeat requests with current params, edit and test the new ones, or share your Proxyman sessions using the export feature. The app also enables working across multiple tabs.
