This is possible of course, but you will then have serious problems at
least with SSL.

If you have a local port forward enabled, say like
 ssh -L2525:mailhost:2525 -L1100:pophost:110 sshhost

you can configure evolution to use localhost:2525 as SMTP or
localhost:110 as POP3 host. This works, but as I said, this is very
black magic which I don't recommend.

Cheers,
