IIRC there are patches that allow stunnel to connect through squid in this way. I'd try that first if gmail supports imap over ssl/tls (I'm not sure if stunnel has any starttls support). Otherwise you can probably find some other utility to connect a localhost port to gmail. I don't know why people have been so dismissive of this question, it sound like a sensible thing to do, particularly if you want to use squid delay pools to manage download bandwidth.
