This is kind of a generalization ... pop3 and imap [in]security depends more on the implementation IMHO. -- Suresh Ramasubramanian <----> mallet <at> efn dot org EMail Sturmbannfuhrer, Lower Middle Class Unix Sysadmin [Linux One Stanza Tip] From : <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> LOST #013 -**< Sub : Locking a directory >**- To "lock" a directory under your $HOME directory for privacy of data, do: $chmod 000 dir/ .... ["root" still has access though] Changing permission to 000 even denies an ls to that dir by all users. You need to do chmod 755 or 777 (for access). _______________________________________________ linux-india-help mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-india-help
