The only reason that your 10.100.145.215 IP appears in the headers there is because your email client sends it. Your email client doesn't need to send it, and as someone else mentioned, it's "scrubbed" if you're using
TorButton with Thunderbird for example.

Yes, it doesn't make sense to use tor with a normal mail-client. But if
you are behind a NAT router, it's not as bad as it looks first.

It's at least as safe as using a webmail interface if you configure your
email client correctly.

Didn't I write "normal mail-client"? Of course you can use Thunderbird with (an old?) TorButton. But it's important to point that out.
