I think your setup is secure enough for most uses, unless your setup somehow accepts invalid SSL certificates.

If you want to be safer (or more paranoid), you could put a VPN on top of that.

  How secure is popmail over wifi, using ssl?  The specific package I
use on my desktop is "getmail", with config option
"type = SimplePOP3SSLRetriever".  I've cloned the important parts of my
home directory onto a USB stick (encrypyed with cryptsetup).  I'd like
to use it with my laptop when travelling.
