Also how is this in any way more secure? If someone intercepts my mail they can logon with my encrypted password in the same way I might, and change my password?
It's not a big deal, just odd.
I don't know if its the reason: Some people have a bad password habbit: They use one password for several sites. If someone intercept the message with the password in, only your account on softwarefreedomday.org will be compromised. Also if a eg. a server harvest a e-mails, including the one with your password in it, your account will not be vulnerable after you have updated your password on softwarefreedomday.org. If it is compromised before you update your password you would be aware of it when you try to login to change your password (becaurse you are have to change it). Other than that, i can't se the purpose... :-/ -- Regards Georg Sluyterman njlug.dk, Aalborg, Denmark
