I tried restarting Mail.app with Vidalia on and Tor disactivated.
Mail was still able to access messages.
Is IMAP through SOCKS? I'm just using Privoxy, and not using a SOCKS
proxy. I guess that's the problem?
Is SOCKS a solution? I saw there was some issue about it having
identifying header information.

If you are using IMAP and you change your proxy settings, you'll
have to tell mail to disconnect and reconnect before it goes trough
the proxy, or you can quit an relaunch Mail. Also, which proxy
setting are you using? SOCKS?

That seems to not be true. Right now Tor is not running, safari
shows the privoxy error page, and mail.app is still able to send
and receive mail from gmail.

If you setup the proxy server in System Preferences, all native-

Send yourself an email and look at the headers for your IP address.
Alternatively, use tcpdump or wireshark to sniff the connection to
see
what leaks.
Just remember that unless you are using pop3s or imaps (that is pop3
over ssl or imap over ssl) the exit node can see your username/
password
in the clear.
