Proxy fails on SSL secured(httpS) websites

Hey!

I'm trying different proxy providers and I've noticed the issue in the title.

I'm setting the proxy in
proxyUrls
in the following format:

http://user:pass@host:port
as I usually do. But with the current providers I'm testing, the request will fail with either 407 (Proxy Authentication Required) or 422 responses.

Strangely enough, if tried with
curl -x 'proxy string from the same providers, in the same format' https://example.com
- it works.

Any idea what could be causing it?
