A customer would like the users on their web site to be able to retrieve their password by email (if forgotten).
This is what they want:
1) User submits their email address
2) Look up username & password corresponding to the email address
3) Send the username & password to the email address
They are using 4.51 with encrypted passwords. Is it possible to retrieve the password in clear text? I know this might not be the best thing to do for security reasons.
The alternative solution would be to generate a new password for the user and email it to the user.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
