When you send email in Gmail, your IP address is included, despite what you may think. You cannot hide the IP address in email sent via Mail, either.

Actually I don't think so, just try it , send a blank email to yourself via gmail,while you are logged in via "https" and look in the email header (by clicking show original under the triangle on the right hand side) and there is no IP address!(except the local one). If you are not sure, just tell me your email address and I'll send you an email and you tell me my IP address ! 😉
