I think he meant that passwords will be sent in cleartext over the network w/o 
encryption. This is actually a problem with the POP protocol. But, qmail-pop3d is 
secure.

How do you plan on using SSL with POP? I know that SSL and IMAP work nicely together, 
but SSL and POP, never heard about that... maybe some SSL proxying techniques???
