What you should do is switch to openssh. Telnet, ftp and mail all send
their login's in clear text for anyone to read. ssh is a secure
replacement which is much easier and faster to use than telnet and ftp,
in most cases. Only if you select an odd bunch of files does it become
a pain. But it will be secure!
In six years only one flaw was found in openssh. (A free version vs
plain ssh which is not free anymore.)
To copy a file simply say:
scp myfile.mp3 loginname@server.name:/dir/
or with wildcard:
scp *.mp3 loginname@server.name:/dir/
