Hi, Check if your ISP provides POP3SSL (try telnetting port 995), you can use it to establish an encrypted session. Most of the mail agent supports POP3SSL. I don't think you have any other options.

Now the password is passed in plain text. Can I establish a tunnel through which I can send the password in encrypted format? Please remember I do not have any kind of shell access on the remote machine. Also, if I create the tunnel can I use my mail agent like Kmail or Netscape Mail to use it? Thanks a lot in advance and bye.
