I have something like this (modified for publishing) on my mu4e config:

And I launch the tunnels if I need to. I have scripts for that which I can launch from Emacs too.

I've thought about redirected ports, tunnels and such things too. With Evolution I'm using that ssh-trick as scripts for years already. I tested those with Emacs too, but noticing that passing the args directly works too, I'll prefer that in Emacs. In Evolution one helper script per remote host is easier to mange, in Gnus all configuration hides in '.gnus' and so does not cost miles of mouse movements when changes are needed. ;-D
I2P(D) tunnels seem to cough a lot after laptop suspend and resume. Ssh master connections seem to restart smoothly. And I haven't tried ssh tunnels in that context yet. So much to play with, so few hours per day. *sigh!*
