Use ssh
On client station forward local port to remote address
/usr/bin/ssh -L1100:localhost:110 PopServerName
and configure client to requiest mail from localhost:1100
I use this configuration for 3 year.

now, something here just does not make sense. when you say 'lack of
resource' - what exactly do you mean? system administration resources?
OMG.
Search the archives, this topic has been
discussed way way too much.

All my users use fetchmail to get mail from my ISP's POP server.
For lack of resources, I cannot put a pop server on my box.
What is the best way to protect my users passwords from being sniffed?
Can a user use an encrypted tunnel to send the userid and password to
the pop server?
Any pointers
