I was creating an SSL tunnel with SSH for pop3 and smtp but I decided to

The problem is that my client IP is not on the same network as my smtp

I'm starting to think the SSH tunnel was a good idea (since my client IP
is dynamic).
Opinions?
SSH works fine.
yes, but there are tradeoffs here. In general, any program on the client
machine can access the tunnel, and you can't do login:password based
controls on the server. I am not saying it's bad. just that it's
"different".
ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] -L25:127.0.0.1:25 -L110:127.0.0.1:110
will tunnel SMTP and pop2 from your local machine and will appear as
localhost on your mail server.
On the client machine, set the mail client to use 127.0.0.1 for SMTP and
POP.
