Which mail client? VM? Gnus? RMail?

VM can access IMAP maildrops, and can use stunnel or ssh; see the
documentation for vm-spool-files or the VM Info file for details. 
However, it simply downloads a batch of messages and optionally
deletes them, similar to POP3; it doesn't operate upon the IMAP
maildrop directly (e.g. you can't interactively retrieve/delete/move
specific messges).

Gnus supports IMAP, and can use SSL or STARTTLS. Unlike VM, it can
operate directly upon the maildrop. See the Gnus Info file for
details.
