I used Tor for a few years some time back and as far as I knew there was no way back then to do what you're 
wanting to
do.  However I did a short search for Tor and email and came up with a link for you using Protonmail and 
evolution.  The
thread is a year old and only has 5 posts in it.  But it may be enough to get you started.  It does require 
you to use
Protonmail though as your email provider.
