If they can subpoena ISPs for the data, they don't even need to seize your server to get your emails, and you'll be none the wiser.

- liotier 14y agoActually they would need to seize my server physically - my ISP does not have the root password. But : - It is located in France, which makes it difficult for the US government. Easy for the French government though. - It is a mom & pop ISP, who will tell me if someone forces them to yield access to he hardware. - I will notice if the server goes offline. That said, a competent, motivated and well endowed intruder will probably find a way through one of the other services on the same host - if intrusion occurs, I guess it will be through a Wordpress plugin. But if I wanted elevated security, a host with just sshd, courrier, postfix and the afferent mail processing is a pretty tough nut to crack.
