You'd need a sshd (deamon) running on some target port, which is set
to forward the connection to 127.0.0.1, port 110 (your pop server).

Not sure of the option off my head, but the quickest way to find out
would be the man pages (if you inderstand the above) or the VNC ssh
tunneling documentation/scripts - available off the VNC home page.

Subject: Speaking of ssh->pop


I be ssh challenged.  How do I setup the server
side to accept ssh tunnels and forward them to
the pop server? 

On the client, all we have to do is follow
Crispin's nice little script:

#!/bin/sh
ssh -C -l crispin -f \
        -L 6666:your.mail.server:110 \
        your.mail.server xbiff -geom +17+690

Now, what do I have listening at port 110 on
the remote end, POP or ssh?

We, the ssh challenged, greatly appreciate
your words of wisdom :)
