Although Outlook has many problems, this isn't one of them. This is a protocol issue. POP3, FTP, and HTTP are plaintext protocols, including the authentication procedure. The only solutions to avoid getting hacked are: 1) Only use these protocols across trusted networks 2) Tunnel these protocols through SSH or some other encryption mechanism 3) Use a VPN of some type (but NOT Microsoft PPTP!). An alternative protocol to POP3 is S/IMAP, which is encrypted using SSL. For FTP you can use SFTP (part of the SSH suite of utilities) and instead of HTTP, there's always HTTPS, which also uses SSL encryption. I will leave it as an exercise to the reader to determine how to implement these. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
