1. Put the email server on the DMZ.
2. Try to convince the company to use SIMAP instead of POP3 or at least
APOP.
3. Use quota to limit the size of the maildirs or mailboxes and
to encourage users to file their messages in local folders (not on the
mailhost)
4. Encourage the company to install the mail service on a separate
machine.
