The current version (4.5.37) of mc, that is used by SuSE creates
the history file mode 600 independently of the umask.
Nevertheless, I think it's a very bad behavior to record account
informations, because it could be used by a cracker to gain access
to more sites.
The authors of mc should disable recording these kind of stuff.
Bye,
Thomas
