Use the stunnel to wrap the POP and IMAP into secure connection by
tunneling the connection.  Suggest you also move them to secure port number
instead of standard port.  You can use the SSL Certificate that you make
yourself and validated yourself so that it is setup that way.

        It works pretty well here.  Here is the link:  http://www.stunnel.org

Subject: [expert] Securing IMAP or Pop3


Hi all,

Firstly,, I am paranoid all the time,, and it works for me... I have no
unsecured connections on my server and I have yet to have had a sucessful
hack. (as far as I can tell anyway.)

I am looking for a way (one that doesn't require that I have a SSL cert.) to
secure either pop3 or IMAP on my server for mail collection...

Can anyone suggest anything useful? perhaps some way of redirecting the port
to use SSH..??

preferably something that is transparent to the client...  (but not
absolutly necessary.) I should also point out that all clients (or most,
mine is the exception) will be windoze machines running Outlook... (not my
choice, its their network. :-)


Can anyone suggest anything

Many Thanks...


kindest regards


Frank

Your LCD monitor should indicate what horizontal & verticle frequency it's
running at.  Now, go into /etc/X11/XF86Config and find the "monitor
section".
 Change the vert&horiz settings and then save the file.  Log out and restart
X.  Log back in and change resolution to 1024x768.  The key to this is to
get
the frequencies to to match.  Also, you may need to adjust width and heighth
so it 'fits' perfectly.  LCDs are digital by nature so you'll just have to
get the X pixels to line up with your LCD pixels.  Think of it that way.
