They really don't need to - the IP address and timestamp are usually sent in
the header of the webmail message, for almost all webmail services.
however, most don't care too much about anonymisers, so if you used (for
example) https://www.safeweb.com/ to connect to http://www.another.com/ and
send a message, you *might* get something like this in the header

needless to say, that isn't my IP address :+)
