This is from the top of my head, but here goes...

If you've followed the Q article, and configured the CFG files correctly, the only thing I can think that would cause your problem is if the SMTP service is running on the proxy server itself. Itshould NOT be, and if it is, it should be disabled (and stopped!).

As far as web access behind the proxy, you must use the REVERSE PROXY feature of the proxy server. It is configured off of the WEB proxy options. You enter the "WEB" address, then map it to the internal server. Just remember to use HTTP:// in both sides of the reverse proxy config.
