While TB works fine on my Home Wifi (no proxies), I have trouble sending and receiving emails when connected to my office Wifi (Proxy settings screenshot https://i.imgur.com/cK4tfhQ.png ).

I copied the same settings to the 'Configure how TB connects to the Internet' values (screenshot https://i.imgur.com/GDkxvxW.png), yet it still won't work.

Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

You need a proxy that understands the protocols and ports you are using. I do not see IMAP, POP or SMTP listed. Only HTTP and HTTPS for web browsing and FTP and Gopher.

There are the only proxy settings available through System Preferences. Could you help me with where I could find the IMAP, POP proxy settings?

You'll need to talk to your corporate IT folks to get the correct proxy information, assuming the proxy allows mail protocols in the first place.
