Summary: pop3proxy security

Initial Comment:
Currently, there is no security on the pop3proxy, so anyone can 
access the user interface from any computer, given a web browser 
and knowledge of the ip address and port.  Even if you didn't know the 
port, figuring it out wouldn't necessarily be difficult.  This allows 
several operations that could be security problems, including 
reading at least the first couple hundred characters of each mail 
body.

It would seem that the correct solution is to 
implement a challenge/authentication on the pop3proxy http 
server.
