Hi folks
When we use some pop client like fetchmail to retrieve mails from
remote servers, how secure is it? On your own machines, you change
the file perms so that it is readable only by you, but what when the
password is sent via the net for authentication? I am sure it can be
sniffed. Is there any way instead of ssh to send encrypted passwords?
Or is there just no second option to a static IP and mailbox?
