  34 <PRE>&gt;&gt;<i> There was also some discussion a while back about adding a feature like this
  35 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> which would enable NickServ to send out lost passwords by dumping data down
  36 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> a sendmail session or similar. Personally, I think it's a great idea, and
  37 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> would make Services even more versatile.  Realistically, how hard is it to
  38 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> do code wise ?
  39 </I>&gt;<i>
  40 </I>&gt;<i>Considerring IRCServices already have a field to store e-mail addresses on
  41 </I>&gt;<i>nicknames, I'd imagine that the addition would be very simple.  All that
  42 </I>&gt;<i>needs done is to add the external piping to the sendmail program and
  43 </I>&gt;<i>having commands to make use of it.
  44 </I>&gt;<i>
  45 </I>&gt;<i>It might even be nice to offer the same thing for channels.  If founder xyz
  46 </I>&gt;<i>forgets their password, have it e-mailed to them.
  47 </I>
  48 Yup, good idea.  To prevent abuse, it would be a good idea to limit the
  49 frequency of e-mails sent - say to one per hour or day.  That way we don't
  50 wind up being the source of a mailbomb attack.
