maybe, but what has that todo with the fact that there isn't a unified system/protocol for webmail? or with the fact that msgplus doesn't support webmail?

(also, webmail can also be brute-force attacked! Although depening on the kind of system, it will be easier/harder. All in all it is as secure as pop3.)
