I'm not sure I understand: JMAP is designed for communication between the client and the mail server. But you still would need a mail server, always on, to receive the incoming mail from other servers, right ?

Did I miss something about JMAP?

Nope, you are exactly correct. JMAP is just a much more modern and efficient way to connect clients and servers to access E-mail.
