No gmail does not reveal the machine IP, I believe hushmail and a few others
do not as well.
Yahoo and hotmail do reveal the IP.

Am I overlooking something? Shouldn't looking at extended header of
the email likely reveal that information? If you click on the
downwards-pointing arrow button next to the Reply button on the far
right of the email window, a drop-down menu appears which has "Show
Original" that shows the original email in raw form with all the
header information.
