Secure POP and SMTP Email via SSH (final update)
Authored by: macemoneta on Jul 23, '03 02:06:23PM

Don't forget -- you have X-windows! Instead of tunneling the various protocols, just start X-windows and ssh to the destination with the "-X" option (add "-C", for compression on slow links):

ssh -X -C user@host

Now you can start your favorite server-based mail program, news reader, web browser, whatever, and EVERYTHING is encrypted back to the server!
