Well you could use pop3 with ssl if the server supports it (and your
mail client does), although it is mainly to protect your login/password
info.  If your think the ISP protects your pacekts from other users on
their network, I guess it doesn't matter too much.  If you access our
pop mail from a connection other than a direct connection to the ISP,
then it does matter.

To protect the contents of your message use gpg or pgp.
