One solution is to upgrade the IMAP connection to a direct TCP one, using ICE (from WebRTC). This was part of a project I helped work on: https://github.com/tkoft/GoingPostal

Would this leak the ip addy of the sender to the receiver and people along the wires?

Each time I looked into webrtc and websockets I think, I noticed the need for a stun/turn server in order to mask sender ip addys, but don't know enough about all that atm.
