If I connect to my mail provider via fetchmail-ssl with the SSL option,
does this mean that only passwords are encrypted or is all of the eMail
download encrypted, too?

And what about connection via https to the internet page of my
provider?

I don't like transmitting eMail in cleartext just as little as I like
transmitting passwords in cleartext.
