And, more important, from SSH (or any other service) password, which it usually also isn't. One should not think of a mail account as a "mail-only" account. There may be multiple services involved, that are protected with the same login credentials. And speaking of email, POP password will be usually the same and IMAP password, and with IMAP one can get access to mail stored in other folders in your account, not only the inbox messages you are "forwarding" to Google. -- Regards, Jaroslaw Rafa r...@rafa.eu.org -- "In a million years, when kids go to school, they're gonna know: once there was a Hushpuppy, and she lived with her daddy in the Bathtub." _______________________________________________ mailop mailing list mailop@mailop.org https://list.mailop.org/listinfo/mailop
