If you wanted to sniff Internet traffic coming from user X, you would
need access to the local network of user X's ISP.
There is no way to sniff traffic remotely on the Internet from your
computer.

I know I've seen this question asked before but can't seem to find the

How difficult is it to Sniff Internet traffic?
To remotely sniff someone's internet traffic, you have to either
compromise a box on (with a view of, i.e. sharing a broadcast domain
or a weak switch with) the path that the bits would naturally take,
or else you need to redirect the bits to pass by your sniffer before
they complete their trip.
searches for Unencrypted Email, Sniffing
Internet Traffic and Sniffing Email and have obtained limited
information.
