quite true.

but that seems a slightly more acceptable idea, rather than people on
the cable network here (who know that the data is easily accessible)
snooping in... (i mean for that matter 99% of people on vsnl "networks"
use pop3. and i repeat vsnl "network" is zillion times bigger than
people on their own pop servers!! so then i guess life's not as bad as
it sounds then!!! :-) 

but yes, i guess i need to find a better option soon!!

although the password entering problem is still a bone in the neck type
issue.entering a password for two such ssh logins on every boot is
sounding like not a best fit solution.
