Not too long ago my wife and I decided to try out a Chinese restaurant in our area we had never visited before. I was looking at the menu and my wife gasped, then laughed a bit. I looked up and she pointed out a rat crawling right under the restaurant's buffet table.

99% of spam comes from hacked OSes by spam worms. Not because of SMTP. I like FTP and telnet for its simplicity and i use it for transfering not-secure data. I can use secure copy for secure data transfer. I can drive!
Is it realy the admin who gets hacked? A lot of times yes. When you install an OS, upgrade it to the newest versions and someone hacks it whos fault is it? Probably the hacker is the only one in the world who knows that security problem in your SSH key generator, that generates two primes in the sequence instead randomly far from each other.
SMTP FTP SSH TELNET are good protocols for what they should be used for.
