It's fun to play with -- but often there are better answers. E.g., instead of POP3 over SSH, you might be better off doing POP3 over SSL. Rather than sftp or (and this would be _really_ difficult, if you can do it at all) ftp over SSH, it's a lot easier to just do scp. scp is universal, and there are even graphical front-ends.
