My IT dept complained about my phone for proxy avoidance

[Genocyde]

Hi All,

I connected my phone to the corporate wifi today, and I immediately got a nasty note from IT saying the IP assigned to my iPhone has hit the threshold for proxy avoidance.

The automated message says:

User name: 
User IP address: [removed]
Threshold (in visits): 20
Category: Proxy Avoidance
Action: Blocked

--Most recent request--
URL: HTTPS://64.151.124.5:443
IP address: 64.151.124.5
Port: 443

I did a search on the IP, and the only thing I can find is list of proxy servers. Why would my phone be communicating with this IP? Could this be due to some rogue app installed via Jailbreak? I can't reconnect the phone until I get this resolved, so I will test this out at home but I'm not sure how I will be able to monitor if it is still hitting the IP. Looks like a restore is in my immediate future to be safe.

I think port 443 has to do with email.

Not so much. 443 is what https:// uses.

Port is SSL. Some IMAP uses it for secure email.

My first thought was that it had to be my gmail over imap, but the ip isn't owned by google.
