It depends on your firewall, I guess, if it allows SSH through you
should be able to. I access IMAP servers through SSH all the
time. Here's my gnus-secondary-select-methods:
,-----
| (setq gnus-secondary-select-methods
| '(
| (nnml "spool")
| (nnimap "personal"
| (nnimap-address "localhost")
| (nnimap-server-port 10143)
| (nnimap-list-pattern ("INBOX" "mail/*"))
| )
| (nnimap "work"
| (nnimap-address "localhost")
| (nnimap-server-port 8143)
| (nnimap-list-pattern ("INBOX" "mail/*"))
| )
| ))
`-----
And then I set up port forwards with SSH through those ports, ala:
ssh -L10143:localhost:143 personal-server
ssh -L8143:localhost:143 work-server
Hope that helps.
