+ | ====== What security issues might there be when running POPFile? ====== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Home users are believed to be reasonably secure with the current design of POPFile, however there are a few situations that users should be aware of. Currently POPFile stores the last 2 days of message history in an unencrypted form. It is possible that someone could read the contents of a user's mail if they can gain access to the files that are contained within the POPFile directory. | ||
