  34 <PRE>&gt;<i>I got very close to being able to send passwords to an email address. I was
  35 </I>&gt;<i>not at all keen on having to handle more sockets so I was basically doing
  36 </I>&gt;<i>the following:
  37 </I>&gt;<i>
  38 </I>&gt;<i>- Dumping the password to a file. The file also contained the email address
  39 </I>&gt;<i>to which to send the email.
  40 </I>&gt;<i>- Run a cron that basically used &quot;mail&quot; to send the mail off.
  41 </I>
  42      As with nslookup, this is seriously asking for trouble, in terms of
  43 resource exhaustion attacks; I recommend against doing this.  I am looking
  44 at adding the various mail features in 5.0.

  46      BTW, {ftp,www}.ircservices.za.net aren't responding.
