I have all un-secure protocols turned off and always have.

Are you still supporting non-secure protocols? Such as pop3 on port
110 or imap on port 143?
My concern is this. If you have non-secure protocols configured on
your phone, tablet, laptop, etc. And you travel to a hotel or other
establishment with wifi. It is a rather trivial matter for other
people on that wifi to steal your password.
If you have these protocols open, all it takes is for one user to
configure their phone/tablet/laptop to use them to get your server
easily hacked. Causing you to get on blacklists and create all sorts
of grief for you.
Due to this, I am contemplating removing these protocols from my
server, forcing all users to configure everything with secure
protocols. What is everyone else doing?
Thanks, Gary
PS - I realize there are other security issues with servers and mail,
just trying to address the wide open holes!
