Other way around I would have thought. The client usually makes
connection to server.

One of the reasons CONNECT is so dangerous is that the receiving server
does not need to know HTTP to communicate once the client has setup the
tunnel.

Still, I don't know of any IMAP client software which wraps its IMAP
requests in HTTP either....
