34 <PRE>>><i> There was also some discussion a while back about adding a feature like this
35 </I>>><i> which would enable NickServ to send out lost passwords by dumping data down
36 </I>>><i> a sendmail session or similar. Personally, I think it's a great idea, and
37 </I>>><i> would make Services even more versatile. Realistically, how hard is it to
38 </I>>><i> do code wise ?
40 </I>><i>Considerring IRCServices already have a field to store e-mail addresses on
41 </I>><i>nicknames, I'd imagine that the addition would be very simple. All that
42 </I>><i>needs done is to add the external piping to the sendmail program and
43 </I>><i>having commands to make use of it.
45 </I>><i>It might even be nice to offer the same thing for channels. If founder xyz
46 </I>><i>forgets their password, have it e-mailed to them.
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.
