1-4) Long-running irssi in tmux. Throw a shellscript onto your desktop that pulls up a terminal with ssh, and runs tmux when you click it (should be just 1 line).
5) Use PGP/GPG and email if you don't trust your IRC server. If you do, just use SSL. Since this is presumably an internal server, why wouldn't you trust it? There are of course encryption plugins for all the major IRC clients, but if you think you need one you are almost certainly Doing It Wrong(tm).
I don't know any Mac specific clients, not sure why you would want one.

1) handles ssh tunnels for me after being configured
2) Automatically handles notifications that I'm being talked to
3) Can retrieve chatlogs from when I'm offline
4) Handles afking automatically
5) Encrypts chats between people
for the mac? It would be really useful.
