But wouldn't it be much easier for an attacker to intercept all of youre-mail by listening in on an unencrypted webmail session than by trying to intercept each e-mail individually somewhere else? I think there certainly is a benefit to having SSL-encrypted webmail for exactly that reason: less determined attackers will not have access to the plaintext of the messages.

the messages are sent in plain text.) -- Benjamin D. Esham [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://bdesham.net | AIM: bdesham128 Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia • http://en.wikipedia.org
