Actually as all email traffic is sent in clear text (unless encrypted using PGP or a program of the sort) - these can be read by any node between your SMTP server and the recipient's POP server not just the end points.

I agree. While someone on the server might be able to read it, there's no need for everyone with a sniffer to be able to.

Regardless, I like this.
