One thing that I forgot: first and foremost, make sure, and
check regularily that your workstation is not trojaned with a
keyboard logger!

> 2. Try to get rid of FTP service too (e.g. make users use scp
>    instead) if you can afford that.
> 3. Configure SSL on the main server - that will make your admin
>    interface SSL secured, and you won't expose admin password.
> 4. Install intrusion detection software (tripwire, portcentry,...)
> 5. Build and install SSL enabled versions of POP3 and IMAP
>    servers and make your users use them instead of plain POP3/IMAP.
