Hi,
I have a couple of accounts with ISP like hotpop, softhome etc. which
provides me POP3 accounts only. 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?

If you are interested in just protecting the password then simply see if the providers support APOP. AFAIK, softhome doesn't.
