  34 <PRE>&gt;<i> &gt; The reason you cannot use getpass is because the encryption isnt
  35 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; reversable...  so having a sendpass command would only be useful
  36 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; with non encrypted db's
  37 </I>&gt;<i>
  38 </I>&gt;<i> I believe the eventual aim is to have a NickServ command (no reason
  39 </I>&gt;<i> why it couldn't be &quot;SENDPASS&quot;) which will reset the person's password
  40 </I>&gt;<i> to something new, and then send it to their NickServ e-mail address.
  41 </I>&gt;<i>

  43 That would be very useful however I would add maybe add a Password must be
  44 changed at identify to any passwords generated in this manner. This would
  45 mean that the generated password would be very transient thereby maintaining
  46 security against someone using the password creation algorithm in an attempt
  47 to crack user passwords.
