[SLUG] Imap and Squirrelmail Authentication

I'm running a RH 8 server for SMTP, IMAP, and webmail services. It's
running imap-2001a-15, php-imap-4.2.2-8.0.5, and squirrelmail-1.2.8-1,
along with pop-before-smtp. When I access my mailbox over the Internet
from either an IMAP client such as Outlook Express, or access Webmail via
a browser, the authentication is not encrypted, and as far as I can see, I
am sending my username and password clear-text over the Internet. Any
pointer on how I can make this more secure? Thanks!!

Doug
